IS MORE RAIN TO COME DOWN, REALLY SOAK INTO THE SOILS. AND THAT WOULD REALLY HELP THEM OUT MORE. AND WE DID GET OUR FAIR SHARE OF RAIN THIS MORNING HERE IN OMAHA. AND IT LOOKS LIKE NOW OUR RAIN CHANCES ARE GOING TO DWINDLE AS WE MOVE LATER INTO THE EVENING. SO IF YOU’RE SOMEBODY GOING TO THE COLLEGE WORLD SERIES, THAT IS SOMEWHAT GOOD NEWS. I THINK THROUGH THE NEXT FEW HOURS, YOU MAY HAVE TO DODGE A SHOWER HERE AND THERE, BUT ANYTHING THAT COMES THROUGH WILL BE VERY BRIEF. AND BY FIRST PITCH, WHICH IS 7:00, I THINK THAT’S KIND OF OUR LAST CHANCE TO GET A SHOWER. WE’RE GOING TO SEE ABOUT 30% ODDS ONCE WE GET TO THE SEVENTH INNING STRETCH. SKIES ARE CLEARING OUT, TEMPERATURES ARE COOLING DOWN. WHO KNEW TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 60S FOR A GAME DURING THE COLLEGE WORLD SERIES. SO THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH, WE SHOWED YOU THIS EARLIER. IT’S ACTUALLY BEEN TRIMMED BACK. A LOT OF THE COUNTIES ARE NOW OFF THIS. WE HAVE OUR COUNTIES IN FAR SOUTHEAST, INCLUDING RICHARDSON COUNTY, PAWNEE COUNTY AND OTTAWA, ATCHISON, HOLT COUNTIES THERE IN NORTHWEST MISSOURI. THAT’S THE AREA WHERE WE HAVE OUR FOCUS FOR SEVERE WEATHER. GOING THROUGH THE REST OF THE EVENING, YOU CAN SEE A WHOLE LOT OF LIGHTNING STRIKES DOWN THERE IN THAT AREA, AND ALSO THERE IN OUR COUNTIES IN NORTHWEST MISSOURI, WHERE THERE IS SOME BIGGER HAIL, AT LEAST A QUARTER SIZE AND THE POTENTIAL OF 60 MILE PER HOUR WINDS. WE HAVEN’T SEEN MUCH POTENTIAL WHEN IT COMES TO TORNADOES OR ROTATION IN THESE THUNDERSTORMS. IT’S THERE, JUST NOT TO THE POINT WHERE WE’RE WORRIED ABOUT A TORNADO FALLING OUT OF THE CLOUDS. IN YOUR FALLS CITY, YOU’RE GETTING SOME RAIN, BUT NOT SEVERE WEATHER RIGHT NOW. AND AS YOU LOOK FURTHER TO THE NORTH AND THE EAST ON LVIV DEUEL POLE, THIS IS NORTH OF THE I-80 CORRIDOR. THERE ARE SOME THUNDERSHOWERS GOING ON AND EVEN THE BACK EDGE OF KIND OF THE CLOUD COVER WILL EVENTUALLY MOVE THROUGH. BUT LOOK DOWN NEAR OMAHA, MAYBE IN THE NEXT 20 MINUTES YOU COULD GET A LIGHT SHOWER. THEREAFTER. I THINK EVERYTHING CLEARS OUT. HERE’S HOW IT LOOKS ON STORM PREDICTOR. THERE’S THE SHIFT DOWN TO THE SOUTH AND NOTICE THE BACK EDGE OF THE CLOUDS. AROUND 8 P.M. WE’RE DONE AFTER THAT AND EVERYTHING STARTS TO BECOME MORE COMFORTABLE AS THE HUMIDITY LESSENS IN THE ATMOSPHERE AS WELL. THERE’S A LIVE LOOK OUTSIDE, SO THE CLOUDS HANGING AROUND AGAIN, THAT’S GOING TO BE HERE MAYBE THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO. AND THEN WE REALLY CLEAR OUT 67 DEGREES AT THE AIRPORT, APPARENTLY REPORTING SOME RAIN AND A NORTH WIND AT 17MPH. YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE RAIN COOLED AIR IS. IT’S ALL THE GREEN SHADE WHERE TEMPERATURES ARE IN THE 60S, 70S AND 80S WHERE YOU REALLY HAVEN’T GOT AS MUCH RAINFALL HERE THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING. SO IMPACT WEATHER THROUGH 8 P.M. THEREAFTER. DON’T WORRY ABOUT ANYTHING BECAUSE THE SKIES CLEAR OUT AND WE BECOME A LOT NICER. AND YOU CAN ALREADY SEE WHERE THE SKIES ARE CLEAR TO THE NORTH AND WEST. SO THE COLD FRONT TAKES OFF DOWN TO THE SOUTHEAST. THAT’S 10 P.M. CLEAR SKIES. AND WE WAIT FOR HIGH PRESSURE TO OUR WEST TO EVENTUALLY COME BACK IN. AND THAT WILL ALLOW EVERYTHING TO SETTLE DOWN. HUMIDITY WILL BE LOWER. THERE’S 2 P.M. ON SUNDAY. YOU HAVE A TON OF SUNSHINE, MAYBE A COUPLE CUMULUS CLOUDS, BUT THAT’S ABOUT IT. THAT’S FAIR WEATHER, SO WE’RE NOT TOO WORRIED. AND THEN EVEN INTO MONDAY, YOU KEEP ALL THE SUNSHINE WITH YOU AND IT JUST LOOKS COMFORTABLE AND LIKE NICE WEATHER TO GO TO A BASEBALL GAME OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. HERE. AS WE GO THROUGH THE COLLEGE WORLD SERIES. SO LOOK AT THAT HIGH TEMPERATURE ON SUNDAY. WE’RE EXPECTING TEMPERATURES FOR HIGHS TO BE IN THE 70S OUTSIDE. SO I MEAN THAT JUST LOOKS TERRIFIC. THERE’S A DAY YOU WANT TO GET OUTSIDE IN THE SEVEN DAY MONDAY OR EXCUSE ME, SUNDAY, MONDAY, TUESDAY. THOSE ARE ALL FANTASTIC WEATHER DAYS. WEDNESDAY THE HUMIDITY WILL INCREASE AGAIN AND THAT WILL LEAD US TO A CHANCE OF SHOWERS OR EVEN THUNDERSTORMS WILL HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE ON, BUT THOSE WILL CLEAR OUT THURSDAY. FRIDAY LOOKS GOOD AND MAYBE MORE RAIN FOR THIS UPCOMING WEEKEND. BUT OVERALL, ONCE WE GET PAS
