After midnight, a cold front will start to push into northeast Nebraska, helping to kick off some scattered storms up there. It's possible a few of storms reach severe levels, where the main concern is damaging winds.

These scattered showers and storms will be possible around sunrise as the cold front makes its way through Omaha, and the rain will be around during the morning until noon.

As the cold front makes its way southeast into Missouri and central Iowa through early Saturday afternoon, our skies may be able to clear up enough to allow for some afternoon sunshine, getting temperatures into the upper 80s.

Another round of rain and storms will begin to develop later into Saturday evening, and will continue Saturday night through Sunday morning. This rain could be heavy at times and may lead to a chance at flooding in southwest Iowa into Sunday morning.

Most of us will be drying out by late Sunday morning, but we could see some afternoon and evening rain south of Omaha. It will be a cloudy and cooler day in the low 80s.

Monday will be mostly cloudy and there may be a few leftover rain showers during the day. We'll reach highs in the low 80s.

The sunshine returns Tuesday, pushing us back into the mid 80s.

Wednesday and Thursday get a little warmer, with upper 80s and mostly sunny skies.
