A dangerous combination of heat and humidity is expected for the next two days. Take it easy when outside and stay hydrated. Check on your older friends, neighbors, and family members to make sure they are staying cool and safe.
We'll see a mix of sunshine and clouds this afternoon. It will be hotter with highs in the low 90s in Omaha, but the high humidity will make it feel more like 101. A couple isolated showers and storms could pop up through the day, but a large majority of eastern Nebraska and western Iowa will be dry.
It will be dry overnight as we drop into the mid 70s for Wednesday morning.
Wednesday will be mostly sunny and breezy as we keep heating up. The humidity drops a touch, but drier air heats up more easily, which could push us into the upper 90s. This will make it feel closer to 107 in Omaha.
A few spotty showers and storms will start to push into areas northwest of Omaha heading into Wednesday evening as a cold front approaches the area. A couple of these storms could be strong to severe. The storms will push farther southeast towards the metro Wednesday night, but they will be weakening as we go later into the night. They will push southeast of I-80 overnight.
Some of the rain will continue into Thursday morning as the cold front passes through. The afternoon looks drier with mid 80s, and then another round of rain will be possible late Thursday.
Friday could come with a few leftover spotty pockets of rain, but more of us will be dry. It will be partly cloudy with upper 80s.
There's an even better chance to stay dry Saturday as we start to warm back up. Highs will be in the low 90s with a mix of sun and clouds.
Sunday will be mostly sunny with mid 90s, and we could get back to the upper 90s on Monday.
