Severe Weather Potential:

An isolated severe storm or two could be possible for the rest of Saturday in eastern Nebraska, as spot showers and storms continue to pop up throughout the overnight. A Marginal Risk (Level 1 out of 5) of severe weather is in place, as any storm that sustains itself could produce large hail and damaging winds.

Here is a look at what the radar could look like for the rest of Saturday and throughout Sunday. Spotty showers and storms will be possible for the rest of Saturday, so an eye on the radar will be just as important for anyone with outdoor plans!

The risk for severe weather shifts north on Sunday. A handful of counties in northeast Nebraska are under a Marginal Risk of severe weather. Damaging winds will be the main concern with the strongest storms moving through this area.

The potential for an isolated severe storm or two returns for the majority of the state north of the Interstate on Monday evening. For now, a Marginal Risk of severe weather is once again in place, with large hail and damaging winds being the main concerns in the strongest storms.

Forecast:

Temperatures will range from the middle 60 to the lower 70s across the state. Some may see an overnight round of showers and thunderstorms, though there are better chances of staying dry for most of us.

Temperatures will fall to the lower 70s in Lincoln with partly cloudy skies. A spot shower or two could be kicked up by convection passing through the area earlier in the evening.

High temperatures on Sunday will attempt to reach the 90s before a northerly shift in the winds takes over by the afternoon. A select few along the Kansas-Nebraska border will have a chance to see the triple digits.

Winds will start southerly in the Capital City before shifting out of the northwest through the afternoon. Highs are expected in the lower 90s, with the breeze and wildfire smoke aloft keeping us from the upper 90s to the lower triple digits.

Temperatures continue in the lower 90s into the start of the work week ahead of a shift in the upper-air pattern. Multiple bursts of energy through the jet stream will bring near-daily chances for showers and thunderstorms. Thursday and Friday offer the greatest chances for showers and storms, though plenty could change between now and then. This will also come with afternoon highs back down into the 70s.
