REENA ROY, ABC NEWS, NEW YORK. NOW FROM OMAHA’S WEATHER LEADER, METEOROLOGIST CAITLIN HARVEY. WITH THE ACCURATE FORECAST, YOU CAN TRUST. 1214. NOW ON YOUR MONDAY AFTERNOON AND THIS IS SOME PATIO WEATHER IF WE’VE EVER SEEN IT. BRIGHT BLUE SKIES HERE FROM OUR CAMERA AT 72ND IN CROWN POINT, LOOKING EAST TOWARD THE CITY. GO AHEAD, GET OUT TODAY IF YOU CAN. 64 RIGHT NOW IN OMAHA, WINDS BECOMING LIGHT FOR MANY OF US. A LITTLE BIT BREEZY AT TIMES, THOUGH. OUT OF THE NORTHEAST. UP TO 14 MILES AN HOUR. NORFOLK. 66 AT 66 AS WELL IN MARYVILLE AND WARMER, 68 OUT IN LINCOLN. LIVE SUPER DOPPLER WITH OUR THREE MINUTE ADVANTAGE STILL SHOWING THOSE CLEAR SKIES. EASTERN NEBRASKA, WESTERN IOWA, NORTHWEST MISSOURI. AND WE’RE GOING TO KEEP IT THAT WAY HERE THIS AFTERNOON. OUR AVERAGE HIGH 49. LET’S SHOOT WELL ABOVE THAT 74 OMAHA. 80 TODAY. THE ANSWERS ARE FORECAST HIGH 70 ATLANTIC AND 74 FOR FOLKS IN COLUMBUS FORECAST FOR TONIGHT. WE’LL KEEP OUR SKIES MOSTLY CLEAR. AND THOSE MILD TEMPERATURES WITH US ONLY DROPPING DOWN TO ABOUT 43 WHICH AGAIN PRETTY NICE HERE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. WINDS REMAINING PRETTY LIGHT THOUGH. THOSE ARE GOING TO PICK UP AS WE HEAD INTO YOUR TUESDAY. OUR LATEST STORM PREDICTOR MODEL THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE DAY TODAY. STILL LOOKING FAIRLY QUIET AS WE WORK OUR WAY INTO OUR OVERNIGHT HOURS. STARTING OFF TOMORROW. MOSTLY CLEAR, BUT CLOUDS GOING TO INCREASE THROUGHOUT THE DAY. TUESDAY SEEING A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR A FEW SHOWERS OVERNIGHT AND INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING. BUT TRULY, WE DO HAVE SOME DRY AIR TO COMBAT ANY RAIN THAT DEVELOPS, AND I THINK THIS WILL STAY A BIT FURTHER SOUTH FOR SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA, NORTHWEST MISSOURI SOUTH CENTRAL IOWA COULD SEE AN ISOLATED, STRONG TO SEVERE STORM TUESDAY NIGHT. BUT AGAIN, I THINK THAT GOING TO STAY MORE INTO MISSOURI SEVEN DAY FORECAST. NOT TOO BAD. 74 YOUR HIGH TODAY 20% CHANCE FOR THOSE SHOWERS LATE TUESDAY. UP TO 30% BY THOSE OVERNIGHT HOURS BY WEDNESDAY. COOLER RELATIVELY SPEAKING A HIGH OF 51 BACK UP TO THE MID 60S. WINDY THURSDAY WITH ELEVATED FIRE DANGER.
