Record Heat Likely Again

Severe storms possible late Thursday
Posted
and last updated

We're dry and warm overnight, cooling into the low 70s for Thursday morning.

The wind will be a little stronger Thursday as we once again push into the mid 90s with a mix of sun and clouds. That would break the record high of 93 set in 1956.

A cold front pushes in from the west Thursday night, kicking off a number of strong to severe storms. The storms will be weakening as they move in, but there is a good chance they could still be severe. All types of severe weather will be possible, but the greatest tornado threat will be up towards northeast Nebraska Thursday evening. The threat will then shift to more damaging winds.

We then get a nice break from the high heat and humidity to end the workweek. Friday will be partly cloudy with highs in the low 80s.

The weekend brings a mix of sunshine and clouds. Most of it will be dry, but we'll have to dodge a few spotty showers and storms late Saturday.

We will be in the low 80s Saturday, followed by upper 70s on Sunday.

The low 80s are back early next week with small rain chances Monday and Tuesday.
