Severe Storm Chance Over the Weekend, Especially Saturday Evening

THOUGH? THERE WAS NOT? NO, THERE WAS NOT. SO WE’RE WAITING TO SEE THUNDERSTORM CHANCES FOR THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. NOTHING MUCH CHANGE FROM YESTERDAY. TODAY IT’S JUST THAT WE’RE A DAY CLOSER TO THE WEEKEND, AND THERE’S GOING TO BE A FRONT. IT’S MID MAY. IT’S THE MIDDLE OF SEVERE WEATHER SEASON. SEEMS LIKE SEVERE WEATHER IS CERTAINLY A POSSIBILITY FOR SOME AREAS. FRIDAY NIGHT, SATURDAY. SUNDAY INTO MONDAY. THIS EVENING, NO SEVERE WEATHER. IT’S A FACTOR OF SIX. IT’S KIND OF WINDY. IT’S RELATIVELY WARM BUT SHOULD STAY DRY. BUT EVEN WITH THAT, THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER SAYS THERE’S A MARGINAL RISK OF A SEVERE STORM. THE SOUTH HALF OF OUR VIEWING AREA. I DON’T KNOW WHY. I DON’T THINK WE’RE GOING TO HAVE ANYTHING AROUND THIS AREA TONIGHT. THIS IS TOMORROW. SLIGHT RISK. ACCORDING TO THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER, LOOKS DRY ALL DAY. REALLY. BUT AFTER 6:00, THEN THERE’S THE CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS. AND THEN THIS IS SATURDAY AFTERNOON. AGAIN, A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER. THEN THIS IS SUNDAY, THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER KIND OF IN THE WHAT WOULD BE ENHANCED RISK. SO MORE TO LOOK AT AS FAR AS THUNDERSTORM CHANCES. IF YOU’RE SUFFERING TODAY, YOU HAVE ALLERGIES. IT COULD BE TREE POLLEN, COULD BE GRASS POLLEN. THAT’S UP THERE NOW TO A LITTLE BIT OF WEED POLLEN, AIR QUALITY. THAT’S NOT VERY GOOD BECAUSE OF THAT FIRE DOWN IN FONTANEL FOR US AND THE SOUTH WIND BLOWING THAT SMOKE UP INTO OMAHA 82 TODAY, THAT IS EIGHT ABOVE THE AVERAGE, 56 THIS MORNING FOR THE LOW TEMPERATURE AND NO RAINFALL. THERE WAS A LITTLE TINY THUNDERSHOWER THAT POPPED UP A THUNDER SPRINKLE. EVEN OUT AROUND NORTH BEND, AND THEN WEAKENED AS IT MOVED TOWARD FREMONT. NOTHING IN THE OMAHA METRO THERE YOU CAN SEE THAT SKY KIND OF HAZY. IT’S 80 SOUTH. WINDS ARE SO STRONG AT 24 MILES AN HOUR, 8184 BELLEVUE 82 DOWN IN PLATTSMOUTH, 81 IN NEBRASKA CITY, 77 IN HARLAN. WITH THE AIR STILL REALLY DRY, DEW POINTS ARE IN THE 30S. WE’RE NOT GOING TO GET STORMS WITH THAT. LOOK AT THAT. SOUTH WIND IS BLOWING HERE. HERE’S LODGEPOLE SUPER DOPPLER SEVEN RADAR. NO PRECIPITATION, A LOCAL AREA. WE’VE HAD SOME CLOUDS, SOME THINNING, A FEW MORE CLOUDS THIS EVENING. AND TONIGHT A LITTLE UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE KIND OF CROSSING THE AREA. THERE’S A WEAK FRONT, BUT THE AIR IS SO DRY. SEEMS UNLIKELY. THIS WILL TOUCH OFF MUCH IN THE WAY OF SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. THIS COMPUTER MODEL KEEPS US DRY. HERE’S TOMORROW. SUNNY, HOT. BUT 5:00, 6:00 WE’RE KIND OF WATCHING. MAYBE RIGHT THERE. WE COULD GET SOME THUNDERSTORMS. SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA, SOUTHWEST IOWA, AND CLOSE TO OMAHA. THE FRONT IS THERE. ON THE FRONT JUST KIND OF HANGS IN PLACE. SO SATURDAY WITH SOME HEATING IN THE AFTERNOON, MAYBE STORMS WILL FORM. IF THIS IS THE POSITIONING, THERE COULD BE SOME STRONG STORMS IN OMAHA. NOT A GUARANTEE, BUT THAT’S THE LATEST COMPUTER MODEL OUTLOOK THERE. SATURDAY EVENING. STRONG STORM POTENTIAL 57. THE LOW TONIGHT WINDS GRADUALLY DIMINISH. LOOKS HOT TOMORROW LOOKS MOSTLY SUNNY. TEMPERATURES UP TO 90 OR 91 IN THE AFTERNOON. AND AGAIN THE EVENING. MAYBE WE’LL SEE SOME SCATTERED STORMS, ESPECIALLY JUST EAST SOUTHEAST OF THE OMAHA METRO OR CLOSE TO THE METRO. THERE YOU GO. WE’VE GOT SATURDAY, SUNDAY AND MONDAY. ALL IS SEVERE WEATHER DAYS. JUST LOOKING AT THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER AND WHAT EVERYBODY’S THINKING, I’M SURE WE’LL GET SOME SEVERE WEATHER WATCHES IN EFFECT FOR THOSE DAYS AND QUITE WARM TEMPERATURES THIS WEEKEN
