Record highs are possible on Monday as we start next week in the mid to upper 60s! Some in eastern Nebraska may even hit 70. Some of our records for 2/9 are:
Omaha: 63

With these warmer temperatures comes the threat of ice jams. A flood watch is in effect for Platte, Elkhorn, and Loup Rivers for the foreseeable future.
A cold front will move through the region Monday night, kicking up a gusty north breeze for Tuesday, and it will be colder out, in the mid-50s.
For now, rain and snow chances look very low for the region next week, but we could see a few small chances of rain on Thursday and Friday Temperatures in the middle of the week will be in the upper 40s, which may be too warm for snow to mix in.
