It's looking warm, but seasonable this week with highs in the mid 80s to lower 90s. Some higher end heat looks like it will return by next week, with signs of temperatures exceeding 100 some days.

The countdown to triple digits is on. We'll stay in the comfortable 80s and 90s for the workweek, but a weekend pattern change is bringing the heat. By Monday and Tuesday, areas like Lincoln and Omaha have a 45–50% chance of crossing that 100°F line for the first time this year. Stay cool out there! 🌡️
