3 THINGS TO KNOW

  • Storms with pockets of hail Thursday evening
  • Drier on Friday
  • A stormy start to the weekend

FORECAST

Scattered storms will continue into Thursday evening. South of Omaha, a few stronger storms will be capable of 1-2" hail, closer to the Nebraska and Kansas border. This hail risk will stay mostly south of Omaha and Lincoln this evening.

This rain will slowly exit the region Thursday night, leaving Friday drier and partly sunny with highs near 60.

More stormy weather returns for the start of the weekend, but things may be a little drier now on Sunday. Off-and-on rounds of storms will be from Saturday morning through late Saturday evening. A few pockets of hail may be possible, but Saturday's severe weather threat is fairly low.

Sunday is now trending to be a drier, breezy and warmer day with highs in the upper 70s to near 80. A few isolated storms may still pop up in the afternoon heat in Iowa, which could pose a severe weather risk.

Monday starts the new workweek even warmer with sunshine and highs in the 80s.

Tuesday gets looks wet and stormy as a cold front eventually moves through the region, and it could lead to a risk of severe weather, with highs near 80.

Estimated rainfall amounts will be around 1.00" to 1.50" through Tuesday night.

The rest of next week will be drier and warmer than average, in the 70s for next Wednesday and Thursday.
