The anticipated heat arrives Friday and we could break record highs in addition to having gusting south winds around 20-30mph. We have forecast 93 for Omaha, which would break the current record of 92, set in 1971. It will be a mostly sunny day, staying warm for high school football in the evening.
Saturday will also be a hot and breezy day. There will be a mix of sunshine and clouds around in the afternoon as the wind continues to blow in near-record heat at 15-30mph. Highs will be near 92, which would fall just shy of Omaha's record of 93.
Still summer-like for Sunday and Monday, but our record highs appear safe for now. It stays mostly sunny, hot, and breezy Sunday and Monday with highs in the low 90s.
A cold front is looking more likely to arrive Tuesday and Wednesday and should bring scattered showers and storms.
Temperatures will be a lot cooler by Tuesday, dropping in the 80s, falling in the 70s for the rest of next week.
