This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of western and north
central Nebraska.
.DAY ONE...This afternoon and tonight.
Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are likely to develop along
a stalled frontal boundary late this afternoon into the evening.
The main concerns will be very large hail up to tennis ball size,
damaging wind gusts, and a tornado or two. Locally heavy rain will
be possible but widespread flooding is not expected. The area for
development appears to favor portions of the southern Sandhills,
central and into southwest Nebraska.
Additional thunderstorms are expected to roll in across the
Panhandle into western and southwest Nebraska this evening. Strong,
damaging winds to 75 mph and large hail will be the main threat with
these storms.
The combination of afternoon high temperatures in the low to middle
90s and muggy conditions will push heat index values into the upper
90s for southwest through central Nebraska.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday.
Scattered to widespread thunderstorms are likely to move in from the
west as early as late afternoon Tuesday but more likely during the
evening hours. Storms may become strong to severe with damaging
winds and heavy rain the main concerns but isolated large hail
possible as well. The heavy rain potential will likely continue
through much of the evening into early Wednesday morning. A few
locations could see rainfall amounts approaching 2" by Wednesday
morning.
Temperatures climb by late week as afternoon highs reach the upper
90s to lower 100s for both Friday and Saturday. Combined with the
humidity, heat indices are forecast to reach the triple digits for
portions of the southwest through central Nebraska.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotter activation will likely be needed late this afternoon and
evening.
