While widespread severe weather is not anticipated, isolated strong to severe thunderstorms cannot be ruled out. Rainfall amounts are expected to be modest, ranging from a quarter to half an inch for areas directly impacted by storms. Lingering clouds and showers will keep temperatures cooler than Saturday, with highs in the upper 70s to low 80s °F (approximately 25-28 °C).

Impact & Risks

The primary impact will be localized rainfall and potential strong thunderstorms, particularly in areas north of Interstate 80. Drivers in far eastern Nebraska and southwest Iowa should be cautious of patchy fog overnight, which could reduce visibility in low-lying areas. On Monday, a Marginal Risk (Level 1 of 5) for isolated storms with gusty winds and hail will extend across more of Nebraska. However, the overall risk of severe weather remains low.
