The clouds thicken up a little more overnight as a few spotty showers start to move into northeast Nebraska for the Tuesday morning commute. We will cool off into the mid 50s in Omaha.
Most of the spotty rain will stay in eastern Nebraska through Tuesday afternoon before expanding into western Iowa heading into Tuesday night. Only about half of us will see rain Tuesday, and a lot of it will be light. With more clouds around, it will also be cooler, with highs in the lower 80s.
Our first of two cold fronts will arrive Tuesday night, but this is the weaker of the two fronts. It only knocks us back into the mid 70s for Wednesday afternoon with a mix of sunshine and clouds.
The second stronger cold front moves in Wednesday night, which will drop us into the mid 60s Thursday with partly cloudy skies. It will also be breezy as the cooler weather blows in.
Omaha's first frost is possible Friday morning as we dip down into the mid 30s. That will put some cities north of I-80 and into southwest Iowa at or below freezing. The city's first frost averages a date of October 6, so this is pretty normal for us.
The wind will be lighter Friday afternoon, but it will be very cool! We only warm into the mid 50s with mostly sunny skies.
Saturday morning will also be very cold, likely a couple degrees colder than Friday morning. Mostly sunny skies then warm us back into the low 60s for the afternoon.
The sunshine continues Sunday, warming us into the low 70s.
A beautiful start to next week is shapping up. Sunshine is back with highs in the low 70s.
