Monday's Weather Thoughts

The weather will be quite active once again this week, especially for the middle of the week.

After the dense morning fog burned off, the afternoon turned much nicer with sunshine and highs near 70. Tonight will be fair, with clear skies early then some clouds overnight with lows in the 40’s.

Tuesday will start partly sunny in the morning, but clouds will increase during the afternoon, and by late afternoon we cloud see a thunderstorm with highs in the 60’s.
The real action will begin tomorrow night and last through the day on Wednesday as a developing area of low pressure over Colorado will introduce the likelihood of showers and thunderstorms, and while no widespread severe weather is anticipated at this time, some of the storms could be strong and also cause some heavy rainfall. In fact, most areas in Greater Nebraska should see anywhere from one half to as much as one inch or more of rain by the time the system exits to the east during Thursday.

Then some summerlike weather is possible as highs will finally reach the 70’s on Friday, and it’s quite possible that highs in the 80’s occur over the weekend. Also, another system will bring the change of showers and thunderstorms later in the weekend, although Saturday looks mainly dry right now.
