Well our front that has remained to our south all week finally moved to our north during the overnight last night, allowing hotter air to work its way into Greater Nebraska. Highs are generally in the 90’s, with Valentine the warm spot at 96 at 4PM CDT. However, moderate levels of humidity are lifting heat indices to as high as 100 in Valentine, so certainly a hot day.
Low pressure over southern South Dakota will move eastward overnight, and will drag a cool front across the region. Cooler and drier air behind the front will clash with the warm and moist air ahead of it, so some showers and thunderstorms are possible this evening and overnight, especially over the Sandhills where some strong to severe storms are possible. Heavy rain is also possible with any storms, especially over northern areas. Skies will be partly cloudy with lows by morning in the lower to middle 60’s.
But this front will continue to move south tomorrow, and high pressure will build into the area from Wyoming. This will result in a gorgeous weekend for us with sunshine, low humidity, a nice breeze and highs in the 80’s both days, which is perfect for just about any outdoor plans you may have.
As warmer and more humid air tries to move back into the region Sunday night into Monday, isolated thunderstorms are possible. Highs Monday will be in the upper 80’s. The hot weather can be expected from Tuesday into Thursday with highs in the 90’s, along with higher levels of humidity.
