Weather Headlines:

Mild temperatures carry us into the start of next week with mostly sunny skies. Winds are expected to pick up as our next system works through the western half of the country. Precipitation chances will increase through the middle and latter half of the week.

Above-average temperatures are favored heading into the week of Thanksgiving for the eastern two-thirds of the country. For reference, our average high temperature this time of year is in the lower 50s.

Widespread precipitation chances will arrive with our next big system heading into next weekend. For now, forecast trends lean towards rain for the area, though details will continue to be fine-tuned through the next several days.

Forecast:

Temperatures will fall close to freezing by Sunday morning, with far eastern Nebraska seeing the upper 20s.

Even with variable cloud cover, it will be a chilly evening for the Lincoln area. Have several layers as you head out for any Saturday night or Sunday morning plans.

Partly to mostly cloudy skies are the greatest concern for any outdoor plans on Sunday, according to the latest run of StormCast.

Mild temperatures round out the weekend across the state. Many of us will see highs in the lower 50s with a southerly breeze continuing to bring in a more seasonal air mass.

We will see partly cloudy skies to start the day in the Capital City, though gradual clearing will leave us with mostly sunny skies through the afternoon.

Strong winds serve as the precursor to an active weather pattern heading into the end of the work week. Additional precipitation chances remain possible heading into the week of Thanksgiving; we will have you covered with the latest forecast for those with travel plans!
