The summer-like heat comes back by the afternoon hours for Tuesday, warming up to about 90° again. That’ll mean a fairly mild morning for the kids with only so many days left of school. We’ll get just a little warmer even on Wednesday, without humidity to come with this heat. Later Wednesday evening, some storms are expected to develop across northern Nebraska. Storms look to track east from Wednesday evening after about 5 p.m. into the overnight hours, mainly staying pretty far north.

Summer-like warmth this week continues through Wednesday. The wind has come back a bit, too. Gusty winds through central Nebraska will pick up around 30-40 mph out of the south late this morning and into the afternoon. With dry air, dry vegetation, stronger winds and warm temperatures, extreme fire danger will be a concern for the counties under a Red Flag Warning Monday afternoon and evening. The warmest days in the lower 90s this week will be Tuesday and Wednesday.

Temperatures climbing to about 90 degrees each day are in the forecast starting Saturday through a good part of next week. These temperatures are the normal highs in July!This looks to be our first “heat wave” of the year, but it doesn’t come with a whole lot of humidity. Friday will start with temperatures closer to 50 just past sunrise, then warm to the middle and upper 80s. That’s about 10-15 degrees above average for areas across southeast Nebraska.

The incredible stretch of pleasant days rolls on today. Normally we have a lot of severe weather to discuss at this time of the year, but those concerns are nowhere to be found. Rain is going to be hard to come by for a while, too. A fine morning and afternoon are in the forecast for Thursday. Skies clear for a lot of sunshine with a nice northeast breeze as temperatures warm to almost 80°. More clouds will develop this afternoon in central Nebraska, Lincoln being on the edge of that.

After seeing more clouds build in overhead the second part of Tuesday, we’re left still with plenty of clouds for Wednesday. Precipitation will largely be hard to come by today, too, but expect mild conditions to last with temperatures in the 50-70° range and light winds out of the east. Only spot showers and storms will be possible first toward the Kansas border early, then mostly north of I-80 by Wednesday evening. Not much rain will come for those that see it, either.
