Overnight Update...
Looks like the severe weather threat for SW NEB is all but done. Most of the severe action happened tonight across West Texas. We are still looking at rain and at times heavy rain through the day time Friday and Saturday. Highs on Friday will be in the 50s and lower 50s for the day time on Saturday. Some snow is going to try to sneak into the area, but I think we stay all rain for this event. Speaking of snow, heavy snow is looking likely in the Denver area. 10-36" of snow is possible in this area. Please use caution if traveling towards Denver as there may be some traffic headachs.
When this is all said and done, up to 4 inches of rain is possible in SW NEB. and possibly around an inch for the rest of the region.
The weather IMPROVES greatly! on Sunday with highs in the 60s Sunday, 70s and possibly pushing 80 by the middle of next week with sunshine.

Heavy Rain & Severe Weather On Thursday
A large, powerful, slow moving storm system will be moving through the central plains the next couple of days.
Will start with Thursday... I think this will be our best shot of severe weather. Large hail and damaging winds are possible with some of these storms. There is an isolated chance of a tornado as well. Thursday night showers and t-storms will be likely, there is a chance of severe weather Thursday night. But I believe Thursday night, our threat will be changing from large hail, damaging winds and isolated tornados to heavy rain, espeically in southwest Nebraska where possibly up to 4" of rain is possible through this entire event (Sunday AM).
Friday and Saturday the heavy rain will continue. Saturday rain will be slowly changing over to snow with little or no snowfall accumlations. A Winter Strom Watch is in effect for the Metro Denver area and the Eastern Colorado Plains west of Fort Morgan with snowfall of 1-2 feet of snow possible.
Stay Tuned to News 2 for the latest weather updates.

Rain Ending... Sun Starting
Rain will start to move out and give way to sunshine on Monday afternoon. High temps not looking bad either with highs in the 60s. Tuesday looks to be the warmest day of the week with highs in the low 70s.
Wednesday through next Sunday looks interesting with a slow moving low pressure system will start in Colorado and make its way (slowly being the key word) through the central plains. Wednesday and Thursday there could be a possible shot at some severe weather, then as some cold air gets drawn into the system, some snow may start to mix in or change too all together. Definitely something to watch as we head into the work week.
Happy Easter,
Thomas
