- Small rain chance late Tuesday
- Labor Day weekend looks warm
Forecast
Happy September everybody! We'll have a very small shot at seeing some quick lived showers this Tuesday morning until around noon, followed by increasing sunshine. It gets very warm again with highs in the low to mid 90s, and an afternoon heat index around 98 degrees. In a lot of our neighborhoods, we'll be TEN degrees above average, which is typically 83 for the beginning of September!
The stationary front rises up north a little by late Tuesday, but will be meandering around north-to-south all week, so those on the northern side of the boundary could see a few isolated showers. Overall, the chance at rain is 20%, but there is a small severe risk for those along or above that Denison and Norfolk latitude.
We'll keep a few clouds around on Wednesday with temps again in the low to mid 90s.
There may be a slightly higher chance at pop-up rain showers on Thursday and Friday, at around 20-30%, as that stationary front drifts south across Omaha again. It stays warm for the end of the week with temps in the low 90s, feeling more like 95 out.
If you have Labor Day weekend plans around Omaha, plan for more warm and mostly dry weather! Temps will be around 90 from Saturday to next Monday.
Extra jet-stream 'storminess' could pick up after Labor Day once this stagnant weather pattern begins to break down. Look for several chances at rain after this holiday weekend, and Omaha should be a little closer to the normal high temps of 80-83 degrees by then, too.
