For those traveling, it doesn't look like there will be any major travel issues across Nebraska or Iowa on Thanksgiving Day.
Thursday will start out mostly sunny, followed by some afternoon clouds. Don't be shocked if you even see a few afternoon snow flurries! It will be a cold day, in the low to mid 30s.
For the Black Friday shoppers, early Friday morning will start in the mid 10s. We'll see plenty of sunshine Friday with highs near 30.
There is still some uncertainty on location, and amounts for snowfall early Saturday morning, but we are finally getting a good idea on what to expect.
A narrow band of light snow will develop late Friday night into early Saturday morning, along and south of Omaha and I-80, and will continue south into Missouri and Kansas, clearing out of the region by mid Saturday morning. While most neighborhoods will only see a dusting to up to 1/2" of snow, parts of far southeast Nebraska could receive an inch of snow, and I-29 in northwest Missouri could receive 1-3" of snow.
Travel impacts should be minimal for the region, but this will stick to roads, and the heavier snow bands over I-29 in Missouri could lead to partially covered roadways.
Once the morning cloud cover and snow clears out, it will stay colder. Highs will be in the upper 20s.
Sunday morning will likely be the coldest part of this cold-snap. The day will start in the single digits to low teens. The afternoon brings a lot of sunshine, but it only warms us into the upper 20s.
We stay mostly sunny on Monday in the mid 30s.
Warmer weather should return by mid next week, where highs will be back in the 40s around Tuesday and Wednesday.
