The heat and humidity will get a little worse today. It will be mostly sunny with a high near 90 in Omaha, but it will feel like the mid 90s. A couple isolated showers could pop up during the day, but most of us will be dry.
A broken line of storms from our northwest will try to move into eastern Nebraska tonight, around 10 or later. If the storms hold together, about 1/3 to 1/2 of our area will see rain. The storms will weaken the farther southeast they push, but they could produce some damaging pockets of wind between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. Thursday.
Thursday likely starts dry, but hit and miss storms will start to pop up as early as the late morning and through the afternoon. About half of us will get hit these at some point during the day. These storms could also reach strong to severe levels. The main concern would be for an area of damaging wind or large hail, but a tornado is also not impossible. For those that stay dry long enough, it will be breezy, hot, and humid with low 90s.
Friday will be mostly cloudy with mid 80s. There will be a lot of dry time to start the day, but late in the day, showers and storms become more likely as a cold front pushes into the region. This will bring our best chance for widespread showers and storms across eastern Nebraska and western Iowa over the next few days. The rain likely ends overnight.
Behind the cold front, Saturday will be cooler and a little more comfortable. It will be mostly sunny with low 80s.
It will start to get a little more muggy and warmer Sunday with upper 80s.
Monday brings a slim chance for rain with upper 80s and a few clouds.
Rain looks a lot more likely Tuesday!
