THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA AND
PORTIONS OF NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS.
DAY ONE
TODAY AND TONIGHT.
NEAR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON
FOR AREAS MAINLY ALONG AND WEST OF HIGHWAY 183 DUE TO THE
COMBINATION OF BREEZY WESTERLY WINDS AND LOW AFTERNOON RELATIVE
HUMIDITY.
DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN
TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.
- TUESDAY EVENING STRONG THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL:
TUESDAY EVENING INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING, THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE POSSIBLE IN SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF OUR FORECAST AREA...
ESPECIALLY IN OUR NORTHERN KANSAS COUNTIES. THERE IS A CHANCE THAT
A FEW OF THESE STORMS COULD BECOME STRONG TO MARGINALLY-
SEVERE...WHICH WOULD BE MOST FAVORED WITHIN ROOKS, OSBORNE AND
MITCHELL COUNTIES. SHOULD ANY STRONGER STORMS MANAGE TO DEVELOP,
THE MAIN HAZARD WOULD BE HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF QUARTERS.
- WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NEAR-CRITICAL TO POTENTIALLY
CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS:
EACH AFTERNOON BETWEEN WEDNESDAY AND SATURDAY, AT LEAST PORTIONS
OF OUR FORECAST AREA ARE EXPECTED TO HAVE AT LEAST NEAR-CRITICAL
FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS, WHEREVER THERE IS A COMBINATION OF WINDS
GUSTING AT LEAST 20 MPH, AND RELATIVE HUMIDITY 25 PERCENT OR
LOWER. A FEW DAYS COULD EVEN FEATURE OUTRIGHT-CRITICAL
CONDITIONS...MEANING WINDS GUSTING AT LEAST 25 MPH AND RELATIVE
HUMIDITY 20 PERCENT OR LOWER. AT THIS TIME, THURSDAY APPEARS TO
CARRY THE HIGHEST POTENTIAL FOR CRITICAL CONDITIONS TO AFFECT A
LARGER PORTION OF OUR FORECAST AREA.
