It's breezy this afternoon as warmer air and higher humidity move in from the south, helping to cause a bigger temperature difference than normal from north to south across the region. We'll have upper 80s near the Kansas border, low to mid 80s around Omaha, and mid and upper 70s north of I-80.
There will be a few spotty showers to dodge this afternoon, but spotty storms will start to kick off as early as 5 p.m. across the area. By 7, a few more storms will start to pop up. The strongest storms will continue until about midnight, but it will take another couple hours for all the rain to end. Only about half of the region will get hit by these storms this evening and tonight, but some of them could be severe. Pockets of large hail and a few areas of damaging wind will be the most likely issues, but a couple tornadoes can't be ruled out either. And with more heavy rain, we could see a couple areas of flash flooding.
We'll be dry by the Thursday morning commute as we fall into the upper 60s.
Most of us stay dry Thursday, but there will be a few spotty showers and storms to dodge from the late afternoon and into the evening. The rest of the day should bring more sunshine with highs in the mid 80s.
Friday will be mostly sunny with mid 80s and a little less humidity.
We'll keep the mid 80s and sunshine for Saturday. A few spotty showers are possible late in the day, but most of us will be dry.
Sunday brings a few more clouds to mix in with the sunshine, but we stay in the mid 80s. There will be another small chance for rain late Sunday.
Monday will be mostly sunny with mid 80s.
The mid 80s continue Tuesday, but we could see a better chance for some rain late Tuesday and into Wednesday.
