Record warmth to start spring in Omaha metro

SUMMER. ESPECIALLY TOMORROW’S FORECAST TO GET INTO THE 90S. BEGINNING NOW WITH A LIVE LOOK FROM OUR CAMERA AT LEWIS AND CLARK MONUMENT LOOKING OUT TOWARD EPPLEY AIRFIELD AND OMAHA FROM IOWA, YOU CAN STILL SEE I-29 FOLKS ARRIVING THIS MORNING. WE’RE OFF TO A VERY, VERY MILD START OUT THERE. 51 OMAHA 60 IN MARYVILLE, 39 OUR COOL SPOT ON THE BOARD. ATLANTIC WITH WINDS STILL LIGHT AND SKIES REMAINING CLEAR. NOW THIS MEANS, ESPECIALLY AS TODAY IS THE EQUINOX, THE SUN GLARE FOR EASTBOUND DRIVERS IS GOING TO BE VERY INTENSE WITH THAT SUNRISE RIGHT ON THE HORIZON. SO PACK THE SHADES AND YOUR PATIENCE TODAY. FOR THE NEXT 12 HOURS, WE’RE WARMING UP, FEELING PHENOMENAL HERE THIS AFTERNOON. 62 DEGREES AT 10:00 INTO THE 80S HERE TODAY. AND HAD A FEW FOLKS ASK ME ABOUT HUMIDITY STAYING LEVEL. IN FACT, SO MUCH SO IT’S GOING TO BECOME A PROBLEM. WE’LL TALK ABOUT THAT HERE IN JUST A SECOND. HERE TODAY THOUGH 83 OUR HIGH IN OMAHA RECORD HIGH 78 TYPICALLY INTO THE MID 50S 88 THIS AFTERNOON IN COLUMBUS 90 BEATRICE AND 83 IN ATLANTIC. I DO HAVE TO WARN YOU, I’M ALREADY FEELING IT MYSELF THIS MORNING. THOSE ALLERGIES ARE BACK. MAPLE, JUNIPER AND ELM. THAT IS TREE POLLEN STAYING IN THE HIGH CATEGORY THROUGH OUT THE WEEKEND STORM PREDICTOR HERE. PLANNING OUT THE END OF YOUR WEEK. STILL LOOKING GREAT HERE FOR LUNCH. GO AHEAD. TAKE IT OUT ON THE PATIO AGAIN. YOUR FRIDAY NIGHT PLANS STAYING MOSTLY CLEAR. WINDS, LIGHT WITH TEMPERATURES. COMFORTABLE HEADING ON INTO TOMORROW. LOOKING TO BREAK RECORDS AGAIN. FORECAST. HIGH IN OMAHA 91. OUR RECORD FOR THE DAY 87. BUT OUR WARMEST TEMPERATURE EVER FOR THE MONTH OF MARCH IN OMAHA 91. THAT’S COMING AT A COST WITH THE WARMER TEMPERATURES, DRY CONDITIONS AND WINDS PICKING UP ALL OF EASTERN NEBRASKA CURRENTLY UNDER A FIRE. WEATHER WATCH FROM 11 A.M. SATURDAY TO 3:00 SUNDAY MORNING. I DO ANTICIPATE THIS GETTING UPGRADED, SO WE’LL HAVE TO BE VERY CAREFUL INTO THE WEEKEND. MAYBE NOT THE BEST GRILLING CONDITIONS, BUT I MEAN, CHECK OUT THE TEMPERATURES 91 TOMORROW. STILL WARM THOUGH RELATIVELY SPEAKING. COOLER. SUNDAY 62 INTO T
