Cooler and windy Thursday, summer stops by for the weekend

After a couple of quiet and mild days, the wind engine gets cranked back up again on Thursday. We quiet back down on Friday, which looks like a great day. Then, summer stops by for the weekend!

Tonight Low Dma

A cool start to the day on Thursday with lows near 40 degrees. This is pretty close to normal.

Wind Gusts

Thursday will be a windy day. The wind will be out of the northwest at 15 to 25 mph, gusting up to 40 mph at times.

Red Flag

Because of the wind, the lack of rain/snow, low humidity, and the mild temperatures, a Red Flag Warning and Fire Weather Watch is in place for much of Nebraska. Any fire that gets started may get out of control quickly.

Tomorrow High Dma

We’ll be about 10-15 degrees cooler on Thursday than we were on Wednesday.

3day Lincoln Forecast With Hourlies

We do warm right back up, though. 70s for Friday. Near record highs for Saturday (and Sunday)!
