FORECAST
Widespread rain will build into the region this evening. Overnight, a few thunderstorms will mix in, and pockets of small hail may be possible. Severe weather potential appears low overnight an in the morning, but there is a chance the last round of morning storms contains gusty winds.
The morning rain will clear out around noon, leaving Thursday afternoon and evening drier with highs in the 50s.
More rain moves in for Friday, and a few stronger thunderstorms may be possible, too. The area with greatest potential for severe weather will be mainly south and east of Omaha, in southeast Nebraska and southwest Iowa, from 2pm until 7pm. The rest of us will just see more heavy rain that lasts through Friday night.
By Friday night, may rain gauges may show 0.50" to 1.50" in it.
It's now looking like the rain will clear out before the weekend, leaving Saturday drier, but cooler and windy with highs in the upper 40s.
For your Easter Sunday plans, expect a cold morning in the upper 20s, followed by temps in the mid 50s with sunshine and calmer winds in the afternoon.
