812 PM CDT Sun Jul 6 2025

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for south central Nebraska and
portions of north central Kansas.

.DAY ONE...Overnight.

Anytime after 11 PM, and lasting into the early Monday morning
hours, at least spotty thunderstorm activity will be possible
almost anywhere in our forecast area...either moving in from the
west, or developing directly overhead.

While most storms should be on the weaker side, a few strong to
perhaps severe storms cannot be ruled out, especially within
counties west of Highway 281. Should any severe storms occur, the
main threats would be wind gusts up to around 60 MPH and possibly
hail up to around the size of quarters.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday.

Periodic chances for thunderstorms exist through much of the
upcoming work week, with some of the overall-highest chances and
most widespread coverage of storms expected Monday evening into
early Tuesday morning, during which time our entire forecast area
is under a Marginal to Enhanced Risk for severe storms.

This is mainly for the expectation of a large-scale complex of
storms to move through much of our area from west-northwest to
east-southeast. Damaging wind gusts as high as 60 to 70 MPH
appear to be the main threat, with an overall-lesser concern for
large hail up to the size of golf balls. In addition, some places
could see heavy rainfall, perhaps as much as 1 to 3 inches in a
short time, which could promote mainly minor flooding issues,
especially across those areas already fairly saturated from
recent rains.

Beyond Tuesday, there is still too much forecast uncertainty to
confidently assess the potential for additional severe weather.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotters are encouraged to report any possible thunderstorm-related
severe weather that might occur overnight.
