A few sprinkles north of Omaha tonight, then sunny for Thursday

DAY. JULIE, WHAT DO YOU THINK? NO, YOU’RE NOT GETTING ME GIRL SCOUT COOKIES. SERVES A DUAL PURPOSE. IT’S A LOVELY GIFT AND BENEFITS FOR YOURSELF. ALL RIGHT. THIS EVENING, WE’VE SEEN SOME CLOUDS SPREAD OVER THE OMAHA METRO AREA. NOW, GOING FORWARD, WE THINK THOSE CLOUDS ARE WITH US FOR A GOOD CHUNK OF THE NIGHT. BUT THEN OUT OF HERE FOR THURSDAY, WHERE WE’LL HAVE RELATIVELY LIGHT WINDS, A DECENT AMOUNT OF SUNSHINE AND MILD TEMPERATURES. SO ARENA FACTOR SIX FOR BEING AND WORKING OUTSIDE TONIGHT. DEUEL POLL IS SHOWING SOME PRECIPITATION, BUT IT’S ALOFT. SEE HOW IT’S AROUND BUT NOT OVER OMAHA. THAT’S NOT THE OMA DOME. THAT’S JUST THE FACT THAT THE SURFACE AIR IS DRY AND PRECIPITATION EVAPORATES BEFORE IT REACHES THE GROUND. THE RADAR HAS TO GET TO A CERTAIN POINT AT WHICH IT ENCOUNTERS THE PRECIPITATION IN THE SKY. HOPE THAT WILL MAKE SENSE LATER TONIGHT, THOUGH. MAYBE A COUPLE MORE SPRINKLES WILL MAKE IT THROUGH. THIS COMPUTER MODEL SUGGESTS THE AIR WILL BE COOL ENOUGH THAT THERE COULD BE A MIX OF RAIN OR SNOW WITH THAT, BUT BARELY. NORTH OF THE OMAHA METRO, SO POSSIBLE THERE COULD BE JUST A LITTLE BIT OF A SPRINKLE OR TWO, OR MAYBE A BRIEF SNOW SHOWER. TODAY’S HIGH TEMPERATURE 53. LOW TEMPERATURE 19. IT WAS CHILLY THIS MORNING. THERE WAS FROST TO SCRAPE OFF THE CAR AND NO MOISTURE. WE HAD ALMOST NOTHING THIS YEAR EXCEPT FOR THAT ONE DAY, JANUARY 8TH, WHERE WE HAD NEARLY AN INCH OF RAIN, WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN A FOOT OF SNOW. THIS IS A CAMERA AT THE CHARLES SCHWAB BUILDING. IT’S MOSTLY CLOUDY. IT’S 42, IN OMAHA, A LITTLE SOUTH BREEZE, 40 IN MILLARD, 42 IN FREMONT, 36 OUT HERE IN WAHOO AND 35 IN LINCOLN. BUT MOST TEMPERATURES ARE IN THE LOWER 40S AND AROUND THE OMAHA METRO. AS WE’VE GOT SOME CLOUDS HERE, A LITTLE BIT OF A SOUTH BREEZE IS BLOWING. AGAIN. THERE’S THAT PRECIPITATION AROUND THE OMAHA AREA, AND YOU CAN SEE IT KIND OF EDGING EASTWARD, BUT PERHAPS BEFORE MORNING WE’LL SEE A COUPLE SPRINKLES MAKE IT ALL THE WAY DOWN. YOU CAN SEE THAT SORT OF WORKING ACROSS NEBRASKA HERE, A WEAK LITTLE DISTURBANCE KIND OF RUNNING INTO HIGH PRESSURE WEAKENING AS IT GOES EAST, AND THEN CLOUDS GO AWAY. THE DISTURBANCE IS GONE. WE GET SOME SUNSHINE TOMORROW NIGHT. PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES. AND THEN FRIDAY, ANOTHER PRETTY GOOD LOOKING DAY WITH JUST A FEW AFTERNOON CLOUDS COMING IN. TONIGHT OUR FORECAST LOWERS 33. MAYBE A BRIEF SHOWER TO THE NORTH, AND MAYBE IF THE COMPUTER MODEL IS RIGHT, THERE COULD BE A LITTLE WET SNOWFLAKE IN THERE. TEMPERATURES IN THE 30S AT 8 A.M., BUT 50S FOR THE AFTERNOON. WE PEAK AT 57 FOR A HIGH TEMPERATURE AND THEN 60 ON FRIDAY. BOTH DAYS, PRETTY LIGHT WINDS. SATURDAY, SOME CLOUDS, BUT AGAIN QUITE MILD. AND THEN AMAZINGLY, EVEN MILDER FOR SUNDAY, MONDAY AND TUESDAY, WHERE WE MAKE A RUN AT 70 FOR A HIGH TEMPERATURE BY TUESDAY.
