The wind lightens up tonight, and we cool off into the low 60s for Friday morning in Omaha. A lot of neighborhoods outside of Omaha, especially in western Iowa, will drop into the 50s.

We start to cool off a little Friday, only reaching the mid 80s with mostly sunny skies. The humidity will be slightly higher, adding to the comfort for the day. There will be a lot of clouds in Iowa by the afternoon. This will keep a number of cities east of Omaha in the upper 70s and low 80s.

Friday night football games will start in the low 80s and end in the low 70s.

A few more clouds will mix in with our sunshine Saturday. Highs will be in the low 80s in Omaha, but Lincoln should be in the mid 80s for your tailgates and Husker parties. You might also notice it getting a little muggy.

Sunday will be in the mid 80s with a mix of sun and clouds.

We stay in the mid 80s Monday with a few clouds. We may have to dodge a few spotty showers, but it looks like most of us will stay dry.

Tuesday will be a mostly cloudy day, and our first chance at measurable rain in Omaha since late August. Highs will be in the mid 80s.

Rain remains possible on Wednesday and Thursday with highs in the mid 80s and partly cloudy skies.
