Milder During Workweek, Then Colder Again This Weekend

This week’s weather will be very much like last week where we turned milder as the week progressed, then colder for the weekend.

As an upper disturbance passes by to our southwest overnight into Tuesday morning, we could see a few snow showers and flurries, especially over the Panhandle and southwestern parts of our viewing area, where there could even be a coating of snow, as lows drop into the teens with mostly cloudy skies.

Tuesday will be a decent day for December with a mixture of sun and clouds expected, and highs getting into the 40’s in most areas with light winds.

As the upper-level pattern flattens and becomes more west-east oriented, we will see temperatures moderate through the workweek with mostly sunny skies and highs from the 40’s to near 50 Wednesday, then into the 50’s to perhaps near 60 Thursday and Friday. Lows in the teens Wednesday morning will warm some into the 20’s for Thursday and Friday.

Then as an arctic front approaches Friday night, there could be some snow showers, which could continue into Saturday as much colder air once again enters Greater Nebraska. Highs over the weekend will stay generally in the 20’s and 30’s, with lows falling back into the single digits and teens.
