Heading into Saturday night, a few thunderstorms will develop in central to northeast Nebraska. While most of us will stay dry overnight, a few of these storms may make it nearby Norfolk, Columbus, and possibly as far east of Tekamah and Fremont. These storms will be capable of gusty winds. Flooding is not as big a concern as a few days ago, but this rain could be heavy if you get it.
Sunday likely starts dry, muggy and with some sunshine, letting us warm to near 90 for a high. As we head later into the afternoon, showers and storms will start to pop up, becoming more widespread across the region through Sunday evening.
A couple of the storms could be strong to severe, with large hail and damaging wind as the main concern with the stronger storms. Heavy rainfall will be possible in these storms, too. Storms will weaken overnight and move south overnight, likely ending before the Monday morning commute.
In total, we could see on average another 0.25" to 0.50" of rainfall, with heaviest amounts of around an inch, possible.
Monday will be mostly sunny, slightly cooler and less humid with mid 80s north of Omaha, and upper 80s south of Omaha.
Tuesday will be mostly sunny with upper 80s for highs.
We're back up to near 90 and a lot of sunshine on Wednesday, followed by low 90s on Thursday.
Some rain may be possible on both Friday for the 4th of July, and the day after on Saturday. Overall, it's looking to be a warmer July 4th than last year, with highs near 90.
