Forecast
A few isolated storms around Omaha can be expected overnight as a cold front sweeps through the region overnight.
We could wake up to a few lingering rain showers early in the morning on Tuesday as some instability may linger behind the front for a few hours. By 8-9 AM, we are dry and turning mostly sunny. Tuesday will be a breezy day as cooler and drier air moves into the region. Tuesday's afternoon temps will only reach the upper 80s, and there should be less humidity in the air, too. This will make for a comfortable night in the low 60s Tuesday night!
Clouds will start to move back into the region Wednesday, but we stay dry through the afternoon as temps only reach the low to mid 80s.
Those waiting for rain may not have to wait much longer! Heading into Wednesday night, rain is expected to move across much of eastern to southeast Nebraska, becoming widespread all day Thursday. and maybe even into Friday. Temps will only make it into the upper 70s to low 80s thanks to the clouds and rain chances. Most of this rain will occur south of Omaha/Lincoln. If you are north of I-80, the chance for rain is lower.
In total, some areas of southeast Nebraska may see upwards of 1.0" to 2.5" of rain.
By the time the weekend rolls in, it start to get hot again...Saturday will be mostly sunny with highs near 90, followed by more heat on Sunday with highs in the mid 90s.That short burst of heat should exit after next Monday or Tuesday.
