Tons Of Rain And Wind
Rain and wind should start to come to end across the area from southwest to northeast through 12am. Snow will also linger in Cherry, Northern Grant and Hooker Counties through 12am. Snow accumulations should be less than 1 inch and that will mainly be on the grassy areas. But some parts of HWY 2 and HWY 61 may have some slick spots.
The other story has been the wind, a Wind Advisory remains in effect for 9pm (CST) 8pm (MST) for most of the KNOP-TV Viewing area and 12am from Thedford eastward. Winds for Monday evening will be out of the west northwest 25-45mph and then die down (like the rain) after 12am.
Quiet weather conditions are in store through Thursday, Highs on Tuesday and Wednesday will be in the 48-55 range. Thursday will see increasing clouds as the next storm system pulls in. And that might bring us a chance of snow.

Winter Weather Blitz
After record highs on Friday, temps slip a little on Saturday. It’s Sunday when things start to go downhill with snow, sleet, freezing rain, rain and possibly t-storms Sunday night. For North Platte Sunday night it looks like its going to start as snow/freezing rain then turn to rain by Monday AM. Areas east of North Platte will see a mostly rain event with this storm, and on the flip side areas north and west of North Platte will see a frozen precip (Snow/Ice) event.
Tune into Tara this weekend for the latest forecast changes, because there will be some.
Have a good weekend,

Do Not Burn Friday Afternoon!
A Red Flag Warning is in effect until 6pm/5pm Friday Afternoon. Due to low a relative humidity, winds of 10 to 20 mph out of the west, unseasonably warm conditions and dormant vegetation. This is a perfect setup for explosive fire growth. Please avoid burning Friday Afternoon. If you have to burn something please wait til later Friday night as relative humidity levels will climb again.
I will be looking at a major mess of a weather forecast setting up for Sunday night. As we have the chance of Snow, Sleet, Ice, Rain and believe it or not some T-Storms. Join me later Friday for News 2.

Enjoy It Well It Lasts!
Temps on Friday will almost be a re-pete of Thursday with temps a few degrees warmer. I think some areas will easily hit 70 southwest of North Platte. The draw back though is the air will be dry. Combine that with the low relative humilities and the warm conditions the fire danger will be high southwest of North Platte. Please use caution if burning in this area.
A weak cold front will slip though the area Friday night. No precipitation is likely with this event. But it will slide down some cooler air for Saturday. Highs on Saturday will only be in the upper 40s and lower 50s and compare to Friday’s highs of 60s and 70s.
Sunday and Monday is looking like a major winter storm will set its sites on parts of Nebraska. An icing event is also possible, and for south-central and southeastern Nebraska heavy rain and maybe a severe storm is possible. Bottom line is keep checking back in with the forecast; this might be a game time decision on what areas get what.
Take care,
Thomas

A Nice Thursday….
Another nice Thursday is on tap. Thursday AM lows will be in the teens and 20s but rebound rather nicely into the 50s/60s and 70s (warmer towards the southwest) with tons of Sunshine.
Same holds true for Friday, then we start cooling down Saturday, then a possible major winter storm may impact our area Sunday and Monday… Stay Tuned as we like to say in the TV Biz.
Take care,
Thomas
