Storms are likely the next several days with the first round coming our way Sunday night into very early Monday.

Most of Sunday will be dry for much of the state, but late in the afternoon storms start to pop in the southern half of Nebraska. Those storms then move northeast. See below for timing and location.

Those storms have a really good chance at dropping some big hail. In fact, most of the southwestern half of the state has a chance to see hail bigger than golf balls.

Tornadoes are also possible with storms that do form. I know 2-10% doesn’t sound like a big number, but it usually means there are at least a few tornadoes during the event, especially in the 10% yellow highlighted area.

Overall, the threat for severe weather is a level 1-3, “Marginal”, “Slight”, and “Enhanced” Risk. The highest risk for severe storms will be in western Nebraska when the storms first start up.
