.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1035 PM CDT Wed Oct 14 2026

Cloudy skies across the region this evening with a few showers
over northeast Nebraska. These showers have developed along a
weak boundary stretching all the way northwest toward Rapid
City. These will continue to move north-northeast. The system we
are watching more closely is a strong upper-level trough over
Colorado. This will bring the showers from western Kansas
northeast into eastern Nebraska and western Iowa overnight as
the closed low weakens and gets absorbed into a stronger upper-
level wave dropping south out of Alberta/Saskatchewan. Rainfall
will continue across our area through Thursday morning ending
through the afternoon as strengthening northerly winds bring in
dry air.

Thursday night into early Friday we are monitoring the potential
for strong winds gusting 40 to 50 mph. As the wave moving out of
Canada phases with the decaying system over the Northern Plains,
we see the ridge over the West Coast try and advance. This leads
to strengthening of the pressure gradient over the Great Plains
between these two systems. A broad swath of strong northerly
winds develops over the region including eastern Nebraska and
western Iowa. NBM guidance shows around a 60% chance of winds
gusting above 45 mph over northeast Nebraska Friday morning.
Could start as early as 3am, but more likely toward 6AM through
11am. Winds weaken going into Friday afternoon as the trough
shifts eastward and the gradient starts to relax, though gusty
winds will likely continue until around 6pm.

With winds becoming calm, clear skies, and a much cooler
Canadian air mass in place, conditions will be ideal for strong
radiational cooling overnight Friday into early Saturday. We
expect temperatures to fall into the low 30s with a fairly
widespread risk for frost. Only spots that might not get cool
enough for frost may be in our more urban areas of Omaha,
Council Bluffs, and Lincoln.

As the ridge continues to trek eastward across the central CONUS
over the weekend, we`ll see southwesterly flow move back in
Saturday trending temperatures warmer over the weekend into
next week. Meanwhile, the upper-level pattern remains active. A
weak disturbance moves through on Monday, though there won`t be
enough moisture for more than an increase in cloud cover through
the day. A stronger trough deepens along the West Coast early
next week. This system will strengthen southwest flow as it
approaches midweek bringing temperatures back into the low-to-
mid 70s for highs on Tuesday and Wednesday. This system brings
our next chances for showers and storms Wednesday-Friday next
week.

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
MIDWEST...

...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms capable of severe wind gusts and a tornado or two are
possible today across parts of the middle Mississippi and Ohio
Valleys.

...Midwest/Ohio Valley...
Extreme/record-caliber seasonal moisture content exists over the
region with warm-sector prevalent 2+ inch Precipitable Water values
and surface dewpoints in excess of 70F. A surface wave over the
middle part of Missouri late this morning should gradually/modestly
deepen as it progresses east-northeastward near a northward-shifting
warm front, although the front/warm sector are a bit muddled by
ongoing convection across southern portions of Missouri and
Illinois.

Current split flow over the Great Plains will quickly resolve, with
a central Plains shortwave trough/speed max phasing with a
broader-scale upper trough over the Upper Midwest through tonight.
The net result will be a strengthening of deep-layer winds
along/north of the warm sector that will shift poleward, although to
what exact degree/spatial extent is uncertain given some of the
ongoing convection.

At least some scattering of warm-sector cloud cover, diurnal heating
and the increasing moisture content with northward extent will allow
for modest cool season destabilization, with SBCAPE potentially
exceeding 1000 J/kg across the lower Wabash Valley and
southern/downstate portions of Illinois and Indiana. This should
allow for re-development/intensification of storms this afternoon,
although the exact magnitude of today`s severe risk is still a bit
uncertain and contingent on surface heating/destabilization. But
this scenario could include a few supercells, with the possibility
of a semi-focused severe/some tornado risk near the warm front,
which may be augmented by some of the prior convection, and ahead of
the surface low. Supercells aside, some semi-organized clusters
capable of wind damage should evolve within the high-moisture
content environment and 40+ kt effective shear. Overall storm
intensity is likely to wane within a couple hours of sunset,
generally by late evening.

...North/West Texas...
An outflow-augmented cold front will continue to spread
southeastward. The tendency for post-frontal convection should
remain the dominant scenario with boundary-parallel deep-layer flow
contributing to a more anafrontal character. Gradual diurnal heating
could support some intensification of storms along the leading edge
of the composite boundary this afternoon. As such, some stronger
wind gusts are plausible, but this scenario and related potential
for organized severe storms is currently expected to remain limited.
