Below is what our StormCast weather model is showing for storm potential Monday afternoon and evening. See below the video for all of the severe weather threats.

The main concern is the potential for tornadoes in SW Nebraska. The area shaded in brown will have the better chance at a tornado or two as storms develop.

Also a concern will be very large hail. The area in yellow with the black hash marks may see hail in excess of 2″ of diameter. That’s bigger than a golf ball.

Damaging wind will be an issue when the storms start to line up and move east. this will be later on in the storm cycle, likely near sunset.

Have a way to be alerted should severe weather move into your area this evening!
