3 THINGS TO KNOW
- Bringing the heat Monday!
- A wetter pattern this week
- Cooler over Easter Weekend
FORECAST
What a way to start our week! Lots of things to smile about today, with Monday morning's temperatures already within the upper 40s, more rain chances into the week, and *so far* a nice Easter Sunday!
Monday afternoon temps are going to take off, with forecasted highs in the upper 80s all across the area! We have the potential to break records once again, with Omaha's record set at 89 back in 1968!
Heading into the evening, an isolated thunderstorm that could contain hail may pop up as a cold front begins to move through the region. Most, if not all will stay dry Monday night. It gets breezy overnight as the cooler air moves in.
We'll stay mostly cloudy and breezy on Tuesday, with 50s in the morning and mid 60s in the afternoon. A few spotty showers are possible, but the rain chance is less than 30%.
Another system moves in Wednesday, bringing a chance for widespread rain throughout the whole day. Temperatures will be colder, in the 40s. There is a chance some melting snow mixes in with the rain north of Omaha, where air temps will be in the low to mid 30s all day.
Some rain may linger into Thursday with temps staying cool, in the upper 40s.
More rain moves in for Friday, and a few thunderstorms may be possible, too. Some of this rain may become heavier at times. Friday's temps will reach the 50s to low 60s.
We want to be careful not to promise this much rainfall, but the models are giving the region around 0.50" to 1.50" of rain this week. Some could see more.
This rain will continue into Saturday morning of this upcoming Easter weekend, but the second half of Saturday is trending drier, just cloudy.
For now, Easter Sunday looks partly cloudy and mostly dry, in the mid 50s which is near normal for early April.
