3 Things to Know

Drier for our Wednesday
More wet weather as soon as tomorrow
Watching for flooding potential this weekend

Forecast

We can expect a little bit of clearing in our clouds, and we might even see some sunshine as we head into our Wednesday afternoon! That will help our temps to climb a little warmer compared to yesterday, expect the upper 60s. This afternoon probably brings your best chance for getting some outside time, as we're expecting more clouds to roll in later this evening, and rain as soon as Thursday morning...

Scattered rain and storms will be possible from Thursday, through Friday and Saturday. Some of this rain could be heavier at times, with rain amounts of 1-4" across the region through Saturday night. Severe weather does not appear likely at this time.

Due to the recent rain over the last two weeks, and the amount of rain we could see through Sunday, flooding will become more of a concern later this weekend. Up until Tuesday, Omaha has seen 12 consecutive days of rainfall. If we see some drizzle Wednesday morning, that will continue the stretch.

By Sunday, things will be starting to dry out and there will be a little sunshine with highs in the mid 70s.

Looking ahead into next week, Monday looks partly sunny and near average in the upper 70s. Beginning Monday evening, we could have another round of storms and showers enter into the area. We're already at the beginning of October by the middle of next week!
