Warm and dry weather has already caused problems with a grassland fire just outside of North Platte today, and Fire weather conditions will remain elevated through Thursday, especially over southern portions of Greater Nebraska.
Highs reached the 80's in most areas today, and temperatures near 80 will occur again tomorrow mainly along and south of Interstate 80 as a cold front stalls over the area. North of this front, highs will be ten to fifteen degrees cooler than today, and humidity will increase a bit so the fire danger will lessen. However, southern areas will remain in a fire danger risk to the south of the front.
On Thursday, the front may move northward again and gusty winds may return so we may see the fire risk become extreme again. But by Friday, showers and thunderstorms should help bring the fire threat down substantially.
Easter Sunday is still looking fair with highs in the lower 60's.
