Thursday brings spotty rain/storm chances along and south of I-80. Friday brings rain/storm chances in the morning & late afternoon hours across eastern, NE. Saturday-Sunday, we could see some MARGINAL severe weather across the state, as a potent system from the west will bring several chances for rain/storms through May 31.
