Expecting record warm temperatures on Monday afternoon in Omaha
Record warmth ahead
CERTAINLY THE WEATHER IS NOT IMPEDING ANY OF THAT CONSTRUCTION THAT’S GOING ON. YEAH, I MEAN, WE HAVEN’T HAD MUCH BIG SNOWSTORMS EITHER, SO IT SHOULD BE ON TRACK, YOU THINK FOR THE MOST PART HERE AND WE GOT NICE WEATHER IN THE FUTURE AS WELL? I MEAN TODAY’S BEEN A MILD DAY. YESTERDAY WAS A MILD DAY. THE DAY BEFORE WAS EVEN MORE MILD. AND THAT STRETCH OF MILD TEMPERATURES IS ACTUALLY GOING TO GET EVEN WARMER HERE. SO TOMORROW WE’RE THINKING HIGH TEMPERATURES, PROBABLY MID 50S RECORD WARMTH BY MONDAY. AND I’M TELLING YOU WE’RE THINKING A LOT OF AREAS MIGHT GET TO 70 DEGREES BY MONDAY AFTERNOON. AND WE DO HAVE A FEW CHANCES. THEY’RE ALL LOW CHANCES OF MAYBE RAIN OR SNOW. THOSE WON’T BE TILL LATE NEXT WEEK, SO WE HAVE SOME TIME THERE TO WORK THOSE OUT AND REFINE THOSE DETAILS FOR YOU. THERE IS A FLOOD WATCH OUT FOR AREAS IN EASTERN NEBRASKA. WE’RE TALKING THE ELKHORN, THE LOUP AND THE PLATTE RIVERS. IF YOU’RE ALONG ONE OF THOSE RIVERS, YOU PROBABLY KNOW WHERE THE VULNERABLE AREAS ARE. SO MOST OF US DON’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT. BUT IF YOU DO LIVE BY SOME OF THOSE RIVERS, JUST BE CAUTIOUS THERE. THE ICE JAMS IS KIND OF THE RISK THERE FROM THE WARMING WE’VE HAD SO THAT ICE CAN BREAK UP AND THEN IN VULNERABLE SPOTS OF THE RIVER KIND OF COLLIDE UP AND CAUSE SOME FLOODING. HERE’S A LIVE LOOK AT THE BEAUTIFUL SUNSET TONIGHT. 44 DEGREES A SOUTH WIND AT 14MPH. 43 FOR PLATTSMOUTH 41. IN DENISON, MOST AREAS ARE IN THE 40S OUTSIDE OF CENTRAL WESTERN IOWA, WHERE THERE ARE SOME UPPER 30S ON THE MAP. WE STILL HAVE THE SOUTH BREEZE, ALTHOUGH NOT AS BAD AS IT WAS EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON. WE SAW SOME GUSTS UP NEAR ALMOST 40MPH. THAT’S PRETTY MUCH DONE NOW. AND NOW THAT WE’RE PAST SUNSET, WE’LL CONTINUE TO SEE THE WINDS DIMINISH A LITTLE BIT MORE. WE DID HAVE SOME HIGHER LEVEL CLOUDS DRIFTING OVERHEAD. THOSE ARE PRETTY MUCH DONE FOR NOW. SO WE’RE GOING TO HAVE CLEAR SKIES THE LATER WE GET INTO THE EVENING HOURS. EVEN OVERNIGHT, WE’LL KEEP THE CLEAR SKIES AND THE WARM FRONT WE’RE GOING TO WATCH IS ACTUALLY THIS ONE UP NORTH. AND THAT’S GOING TO TRANSITION THROUGH THE AREA PROBABLY ON SUNDAY. AND WE’LL GET A GOOD AMOUNT OF SUN AND TEMPERATURES IN THE 50S ON SUNDAY, AND MAYBE EVEN SOME FOG DEVELOPING ALONG THE MISSOURI RIVER, KIND OF RIGHT ALONG I-29 THERE MONDAY MORNING. BUT THAT SHOULD BURN OFF QUICKLY. AND BY MONDAY AFTERNOON WE GET A SOUTHWEST BREEZE, SO IT WILL BE A LITTLE BREEZY. WE GET THE SUNSHINE AND TEMPERATURES WILL LIKELY GET NEAR THE 70 DEGREE MARK. I’M GOING TO SHOW YOU THAT MAP HERE SOON. SUNDAY LOOKS OR EXCUSE ME, MONDAY LOOKS REALLY GOOD. HERE’S YOUR HOUR BY HOUR FORECAST. THIS IS FOR THIS EVENING. 40S INTO THE UPPER 30S. IF YOU’RE OUT AROUND MIDNIGHT, I DON’T KNOW IF A LOT OF US WILL BE. THAT’S WHEN YOU GET INTO THE MID AND LOWER 30S. OUTSIDE. WE’RE THINKING 31 DEGREES, THE LOW TEMPERATURE. IF YOU LIVE IN CENTRAL WESTERN IOWA, YOU COULD BE IN THE MID 20S. THAT’S THE SAME AREA. YOU COULD SEE SOME LOW CLOUD COVER TOMORROW AFTERNOON. SO THAT’S WHY THAT AREA MAYBE LOWER 40S FOR SAY LIKE CARROLL. BUT LOOK AT THE TEMPERATURE GRADIENT. YOU GET TO LINCOLN AND BEATRICE DOWN TO THE SOUTHWEST. YOU COULD BE IN THE 60S TOMORROW. LOOK AT MONDAY THOUGH. THIS IS JUST PHENOMENAL. THIS WOULD BE RECORD WARMTH OF TEMPERATURES GETTING IN THE UPPER 60S AND LOWER 70S. AND THIS WILL CRUSH THE RECORD FOR MONDAY. 63 IS THE RECORD FOR FORECASTING 69. IT’S NOT A VERY STRONG RECORD. THERE ARE SOME RECORDS IN FEBRUARY FOR EACH AND EVERY DAY THAT ARE CLOSER TO 70 DEGREES, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THAT’S GOING TO BE CLOSER TO THE RECORD BY THE TIME WE GET PAST MONDAY. TUESDAY, AFTER THE FRONT COMES THROUGH, THAT WILL PUSH US DOWN TO 51, BUT THAT’S STILL 15 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL AND WE STAY THAT WAY FOR A LOT OF NEXT WEEK. BUT WE WILL WATCH FOR A COUPLE RAIN OR MAYBE SNOW CHANCES BY THE END OF THE WEEK. SO FOR THE MOST PART IT LOOKS LIKE A DRY STRETCH. IT LOOKS LIKE A REALLY WARM, HONESTLY, LOOKS MORE LIKE SPRING THAN IT DOES WINTER TIME. SEVEN DAY FORECAST. I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY, I KNOW WE
