LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER THE MOUNTAINS TODAY, ANY  
DEVELOPMENT WILL GENERALLY STAY AWAY FROM THE TAF SITES. A BRIEF  
LIGHT SNOW SHOWER OR TWO CAN'T BE RULED OUT, BUT DON'T EXPECT ANY  
IMPACTS IF THEY WERE TO MOVE OVERHEAD. VFR CONDITIONS WILL BE IN  
PLACE THIS PERIOD, THOUGH THERE IS A LOW CHANCE FOR A SMALL WINDOW  
OF MVFR CEILINGS AT COS AT THE START OF THE PERIOD. WINDS WILL AGAIN  
BE LIGHT AND DIURNALLY DRIVEN.

SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS SOME LOWER VFR CLOUDS BLOOMING ACROSS  
CENTRAL NEBRASKA, THOUGH THE LATEST PROBABILISTIC GUIDANCE  
CONTINUES TO SHOW THE PROBABILITY FOR SUB-VFR CIGS/VSBY TO BE 30  
PERCENT OR LESS. WILL MAINTAIN THE TREND FOR A LOWER VFR CIG  
WITH SOME SCT MVFR CLOUDS UNDERNEATH WILL MONITOR TRENDS  
CLOSELY TO SEE IF AN AMENDMENT BECOMES NECESSARY. VFR CIGS WILL  
LIFT A BIT HIGHER MONDAY MORNING BUT MVFR CONDITIONS WILL MOVE  
DOWN FROM THE NORTH. TIMING HAS BECOME A BIT FASTER AND WILL  
INDICATE MVFR CIGS AT KVTN BY LATE IN THE AFTERNOON WITH SOME  
POTENTIAL FOR IFR BY THE END OF THE VALID PERIOD. THERE MAY BE  
SOME FLURRIES AS THE LOWER CIGS START TO PUSH SOUTHWARD BUT WILL  
CONFINE MENTION OF SNOW TO AFTER 00Z WHEN CONFIDENCE IS HIGHER.  
DO NOT EXPECT THE LOWER CIGS OR PRECIPITATION TO PENETRATE FAR  
ENOUGH SOUTH TO IMPACT KLBF.  
THE LIGHT WIND REGIME WILL GET A BIT GUSTY THIS AFTERNOON  
MAINLY AT KLBF WITH GUSTS AROUND 20KT BUT REMAIN GENERALLY AT OR  
BELOW AROUND 10KT AT KVTN. WINDS ALOFT WILL AMPLIFY A BIT  
AROUND DAYBREAK SO WILL MENTION LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR FOR A BRIEF  
PERIOD MONDAY MORNING.
