The Omaha area is set to experience a warm-up on Tuesday, with temperatures reaching the low to mid-80s in the afternoon after a cool morning. A significant weather pattern is expected tonight, bringing the potential for storms that might start as early as midnight and continue through Wednesday night. While widespread severe weather is not anticipated, there is a marginal risk for stronger storms with gusty winds of up to 60 miles per hour and possibly small hail.

The Storm Prediction Center has indicated that the greatest likelihood for severe weather will be in the areas north and west of Omaha, including northeast Nebraska. As the night progresses, the risk for strong storms may expand, particularly into Wednesday morning and later in the day. In addition, heavy rainfall is a concern with any storms that do develop.

Current conditions in Nebraska and Iowa feature mild temperatures, with 60-degree readings and some spots in the 50s. An approaching front is expected to bring changes in weather, with scattered clouds and a light breeze throughout the day. Precipitation is more likely overnight into early Wednesday, with lingering showers possibly impacting the morning commute.

Looking forward, the weather will continue to heat up, with the possibility of reaching the upper 90s by Friday, raising concerns about “feels like” temperatures soaring into the triple digits. While there are storm chances anticipated for the weekend, daytime activities are expected to remain dry during the week.

The forecast serves as a reminder of the dynamic weather patterns typical for this time of year, emphasizing the importance of staying informed and prepared for changes. As the region transitions toward summer, it also brings opportunities for outdoor activities, albeit with caution during storm events.
