Keeping the heat under control... for now

Summer heat and humidity return soon

and last updated

After another cloudy morning, our skies are starting to clear early in the afternoon, and we'll slowly keep getting more sunshine out later in the day. It will be a little warmer, with a high near 80.

Tonight will be mostly clear and comfy as we drop into the low 60s for Thursday morning. Neighborhoods in western Iowa have a better chance of seeing some upper 50s. While most of us stay dry, there will be a few isolated showers to dodge again into the morning commute.

Thursday will be partly cloudy and breezy at times, but we keep the heat under control. Highs will be in the low 80s.

An isolated shower can't be ruled out at any time Friday, but most of us will be dry all day. There will be a lot more clouds in the sky, but more of us will reach the low 80s with Omaha across eastern Nebraska and western Iowa.

The summer heat, humidity, and sunshine will kick in for the weekend, so make sure you have sunscreen with you if you're heading to Offutt AFB for the Defenders of Freedom Air and Space Show.

Saturday will be mostly sunny and humid with a high near 94. Sunday will also be in the mid 90s with a lot of sunshine. It might not help it feel much better, but at least the wind will be blowing around some both days.

Monday will be in the low 90s with at least a small chance for rain to end the day. We drop the heat a little more Tuesday with upper 80s.
