Damp and chilly this evening in Omaha with light rain

IT’S CHILLY AND ALREADY IMPACTING SCHEDULE OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES HERE FOR THIS EVENING. YOU SAID SOCCER PRACTICE IS CANCELED THIS EVENING. IF YOU’VE GOT PLANS TO BE IN WORK OUTSIDE, IT’S COLD. IT’S GOING TO BE RAINY. IT’S A RAINY FACTOR FOR UNPLEASANT COMBINATION. NOT ANYTHING HEAVY JUST YET, JUST SOME VERY LIGHT SPRINKLES AND LIGHT RAIN IN THE METRO. A LITTLE STEADIER RAIN SOUTHWEST OF LINCOLN AREA. TOMORROW WE’RE WATCHING WESTERN IOWA FOR A MARGINAL RISK OF A SEVERE STORM TO POP UP. IF THERE’S A LITTLE SUN AND HEATING. AND THEN SAME THING FOR FRIDAY THAT WESTERN IOWA, NORTHERN MISSOURI. ALTHOUGH THAT SYSTEM LOOKS LIKE IT WILL HAVE STRONGER UPPER LEVEL WINDS AND MAYBE MORE OF A SEVERE OUTBREAK, ESPECIALLY EAST OF US INTO IOWA. LET’S TALK ABOUT THIS EVENING. AND TONIGHT. IT’S OUR COMPUTER MODEL. FROM NOW UNTIL SEVEN, SEVEN UNTIL NINE. LOOKS LIKE IT’S GOING TO COME TO AN END AFTER TEN, 11:00, BUT THEN IT FILLS BACK IN AND THIS COULD BE A ROUND OF SHOWERS AND RUMBLES OF THUNDER LATE TONIGHT, 4 A.M. TOMORROW MORNING DRIVE TIME TOMORROW THROUGH THE MORNING. DRIVE MID MORNING SHOWERS, A RUMBLE OF THUNDER. AND THEN WE WATCH THIS AREA. IF THERE’S ANY KIND OF HEATING OVER HERE IN SOUTHWEST IOWA, THESE COULD BE STRONGER OR EVEN SEVERE STORMS. AND OF COURSE THE PLACEMENT OF THAT, THEY COULD BE 50 MILES WEST OR 50 MILES FARTHER EAST. BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THEY WILL MOVE AWAY AND WILL BE QUIETER BY LATER DAY TOMORROW. HOW MUCH RAIN? I KNOW YOU WANT TO KNOW THAT I DO TOO. THIS IS OUR COMPUTER MODEL PROJECTION FOR THIS EVENING. NOT THAT MUCH. 10TH OF AN INCH OR SO, BUT IT HAS SUBSTANTIAL RAIN WITH THE THUNDER LATE TONIGHT AND THROUGH TOMORROW. AND THEN MORE POSSIBILITIES LATE THURSDAY NIGHT AND ALSO INTO FRIDAY. THE COOLER DAY 49 AND 34 FOR THE HIGH TEMPERATURE, LOW TEMPERATURE AND PRECIPITATION. SO FAR 1/100 OF AN INCH. AND IT’S JUST DAMP DOWNTOWN. THAT’S OUR CAMERA AT THE EMBASSY SUITES ON 10TH STREET, 47 DEGREES EAST, BREEZE, 14MPH, 45 COUNCIL BLUFFS, 47 BLAIR 47. TEKAMAH 42 IN NORFOLK. WINDS AREN’T PARTICULARLY STRONG, BUT THAT EAST BREEZE AND THE CLOUDS AND THE SHOWERS WILL KEEP THE TEMPERATURES PRETTY STEADY INTO THIS EVENING, AND YOU CAN SEE A LITTLE MORE MOISTURE COMING UP FROM THE SOUTHWEST. THAT’S WHAT WE THINK WILL IMPACT OUR AREA LATER TONIGHT. WARM FRONT STAYS SOUTH. BIG STORMS MAYBE ACROSS PARTS OF MISSOURI. BUT THERE’S OUR ACTIVITY TOMORROW. LOOK AT THE ICE IN WISCONSIN. SNOW IN MINNESOTA. AND THIS FIRST SYSTEM MOVES OUT. THE NEXT ONE COMING IN FOR FRIDAY. TONIGHT I’M FORECASTING A LOW OF 44 DEGREES WHICH ISN’T MUCH BELOW WHERE WE’RE AT RIGHT NOW. IMPACT WEATHER FOR THE RAIN LIKELY AND SOME RUMBLES OF THUNDER LATE LATE NIGHT INTO TOMORROW. IT LOOKS LIKE RAIN CONTINUES AROUND THE AREA AND ESPECIALLY WATCHING LATE DAY TOMORROW INTO SOUTHWEST AND CENTRAL IOWA 53. THE HIGH 53. THE HIGH ON FRIDAY. IMPACT WEATHER AGAIN WITH THE THUNDERSTORM CHANCE. MORNING LOWS THIS WEEKEND 32 ON SATURDAY. A HIGH OF JUST 4729 SUNDAY. A LOT OF FOLKS GO TO EASTER SUNRISE SERVICES AND BRING THE WINTER GEAR, THE HATS, THE GLOVES, THE BOOTS. I MEAN, IT’S COLD ON SUNDAY MORNING.
