DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 336 AM CDT TUE APR 29 2025
OVERALL TEMPS WILL TAKE A BRIEF HIT BEFORE WARMING AGAIN WITH
MULTIPLE CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION
DUE TO THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE LAST NIGHT, EASTERN NEBRASKA AND
SOUTHWEST IOWA WILL BE ABOUT 20-25 DEGREES COOLER THAN
YESTERDAY. HIGHS YESTERDAY WERE IN THE 80S TO LOW 90S AND TODAY
HIGHS ARE EXPECTED IN THE LOW TO MID 60S. EARLY MORNING CLOUDS
WILL GIVE WAY TO CLEAR SKIES THROUGHOUT THE DAY AND WINDS WILL
DECREASE AND BECOME LIGHT AND VARIABLE AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
MOVES OVERHEAD.
BY TOMORROW NIGHT, THE NEXT DISTURBANCE WILL APPROACH FROM THE
WEST AND BRING ANOTHER CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO
THE AREA. THESE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE NOT ANTICIPATED TO
BE STRONG OR SEVERE. WHILE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL
INCREASE TOMORROW EVENING, THE BEST CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION
WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA TOWARDS THE EARLY MORNING HOURS ON
WEDNESDAY. THE AREA THAT HAS THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST FOR AREAS ALONG AND SOUTHEAST
OF A LINE FROM MONONA COUNTY IOWA TO SEWARD COUNTY NEBRASKA. THE
HIGHEST CHANCES (GREATER THAN 50%) WILL BE ACROSS EXTREME
SOUTHEASTERN NEBRASKA AND SOUTHWEST IOWA. MUCH OF EASTERN
NEBRASKA WILL LIKELY NOT SEE PRECIPITATION OF IF THEY DO, NOT
MEANINGFUL AMOUNTS. EVEN WITH THE HIGHER CHANCES FOR
PRECIPITATION, THE AMOUNT OF RAIN IS EXPECTED TO BE LESS THAN
0.25".
OFF AND ON CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST
THROUGH THURSDAY AND EVEN POSSIBLY INTO FRIDAY. THE NBM
CURRENTLY KEEPS MOST OF THE AREA, ESPECIALLY EASTERN NEBRASKA
DRY ON FRIDAY, BUT THERE IS A SIGNAL FOR PRECIPITATION AHEAD OF
A STRONG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE AS IT SWINGS SOUTHEAST ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA.
TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WORKWEEK WITH THE OFF
AND ON PRECIPITATION CHANCES WILL LARGELY BE IN THE 60S.
AS THE DISTURBANCE EXITS THE CENTRAL/NORTHERN PLAINS FRIDAY,
UPPER LEVEL RIDGING AND SOUTHERLY SURFACE FLOW WILL RETURN WHICH
WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO WARM BACK INTO THE 70S FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST. THE WEEKEND LOOKS LIKE A NICE
WEEKEND, DRY WITH HIGHS IN THE 70S, LIGHT WINDS AND SUNNY
SKIES.
AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z WEDNESDAY/
ISSUED AT 1245 AM CDT TUE APR 29 2025
MVFR TAFS EARLY THIS MORNING AS LOW CLOUDS MOVE IN ARE PRESENT
OR MOVING IN BEHIND THE COLD FRONT. THESE LOW CLOUDS SHOULD LAST
THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS BEFORE SCATTERING WITH CLEAR SKIES
EXPECTED THROUGH OUT THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD. BREEZY
NORTHWESTERLY WINDS WILL DECREASE TOWARDS SUNRISE AND BECOME
NORTHERLY. BY AROUND 18Z, WINDS WILL BECOME LIGHT AND VARIABLE
AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OVERHEAD.
