This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for south central Nebraska and
portions of north central Kansas.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.
A Frost Advisory remains in effect until 9 AM for the majority of
counties along and west of the Highway 281 corridor. Please refer
to the Advisory statement for more details.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday.
On Tuesday, thunderstorm chances return to most of our area,
particularly during the afternoon hours as a cold front sweeps
through. Most counties mainly along and east of Highway 281 are
currently under a Marginal Risk for severe storms, with a Slight
Risk clipping a few far eastern counties along Highway 81. Should
any storms develop within our area, they could become severe
quickly, with the main threats being large hail to around golf
ball size and wind gusts to at least 60 MPH, and maybe even a low
chance for a tornado. That being said, the likelihood of storm
development within our area is still in question, depending in
part on how quickly or slowly this front passes. If it passes
slower, our chances for possible severe storms could increase and
maybe impact more of our area. However, if it moves through
faster, it`s possible that storms could avoid our area altogether
and instead develop slightly off to the east.
Next, between Wednesday daytime and Thursday morning, overall-
higher and more widespread thunderstorm chances arrive. Some of
these storms could be severe, and nearly our entire area is under
either a Marginal or Slight Risk for severe activity, with the
greatest concern currently anticipated near and south of the
Nebraska-Kansas border. Large hail, damaging winds and pockets of
heavy rain/possible flooding would be the primary threats across
most of our area, although a tornado threat could also exist
especially in north central Kansas closer to a warm front. Please
note that several details are still unclear.
Finally, this weekend carries highly uncertain thunderstorm
chances for various parts of our area.
