AFTERNOON WITH TEMPERATURES RANGING FROM THE LOWER 90S TO LOWER

AROUND 105 DEGREES. AFTER A WET WEEK, THE AMPLE MOISTURE IN THE

25 MPH AND GUSTS OF 35 TO 40 MPH EXCEPT IN THE FAR NORTHWEST
CORNER WHICH HAD LIGHT WINDS UP TO 10 MPH. DAYTIME HEATING HELPED
DEVELOP SOME CLOUD COVER IN THE EASTERN PORTIONS. OTHERWISE
SUNSHINE ABOUNDED.
THERE ARE MINIMAL WEATHER CONCERNS IN THE CENTRAL PLAINS THIS
EVENING. A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS EXISTS IN FAR
NORTHWEST NEBRASKA. TEMPERATURES ARE FORECAST TO FALL TO THE UPPER
50S IN WESTERN NEBRASKA TO AROUND 80 DEGREES IN EASTERN KANSAS
AND OKLAHOMA. BREEZY WINDS SHOULD PERSIST THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS FOR MOST LOCATIONS WITH SPEEDS OF 15 TO 25 MPH. MINIMAL
CLOUD COVER IS ANTICIPATED.
ANOTHER DAY OF SUMMER HEAT FOR MOST OF THE CENTRAL PLAINS IS
EXPECTED ON MONDAY WITH WESTERN KANSAS INTO THE PANHANDLES HAVING
HIGH TEMPERATURES FROM 100 TO 105 ONCE MORE. THE REMAINING
LOCATIONS WILL RANGE FROM THE MID 80S TO MID 90S. THOSE IN THE
EAST MAY NOT HAVE THE TEMPERATURES NEAR 100, BUT THE PERSISTENT
MOISTURE RESULTS IN HEAT INDICES OF 100 TO 105 FOR ANOTHER DAY.
AT LEAST THE BREEZY TREND SHOULD CONTINUE FOR ALL BUT CENTRAL
NEBRASKA WHICH WILL HAVE WINDS CLOSER TO 10 MPH. DAYTIME HEATING
COULD HELP DEVELOP SCATTERED AFTERNOON CLOUDS BUT SUNSHINE WILL
BE PLENTIFUL.
