THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA AND
PORTIONS OF NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS.
DAY ONE
OVERNIGHT.
STRONG NORTH-NORTHWEST WINDS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS OUR ENTIRE AREA
OVERNIGHT, WITH SUSTAINED SPEEDS OF 30 TO 40 MPH AND GUSTS OF 45
TO 55 MPH COMMON. THE OVERALL-STRONGEST WINDS WILL FOCUS WITHIN
COUNTIES NEAR AND NORTH OF INTERSTATE 80 IN NEBRASKA, WHERE A HIGH
WIND WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT.
BETWEEN MIDNIGHT AND SUNRISE SATURDAY, RAIN COULD AT LEAST
BRIEFLY CHANGE TO SLUSHY, WET SNOW...MAINLY WITHIN SOME OF OUR
NEBRASKA COUNTIES ALONG AND NORTH OF INTERSTATE 80. ANY SNOW
ACCUMULATION SHOULD BE MINIMAL, LIKELY ONE-HALF INCH OR LESS, BUT
VISIBILITY COULD BE REDUCED FOR A TIME DUE TO THE COMBINATION OF
FALLING SNOW AND STRONG WINDS.
DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN
SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.
THROUGH 1 PM SATURDAY, A HIGH WIND WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR
COUNTIES NEAR AND NORTH OF INTERSTATE 80 IN NEBRASKA, WHERE GUSTS
OF AT LEAST 45 TO 50 MPH APPEAR MOST FAVORED TO PERSIST INTO THE
DAYLIGHT HOURS.
SATURDAY AFTERNOON INTO EARLY EVENING, OUR ENTIRE FORECAST AREA
IS UNDER A FIRE WEATHER WATCH FOR THE LIKELIHOOD OF CRITICAL FIRE
WEATHER CONDITIONS...DUE TO THE COMBINATION OF MODERATELY-STRONG
NORTH-NORTHWEST WINDS AND LOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY AROUND 20 PERCENT
OR LESS. PLEASE REFER TO THE WATCH STATEMENT FOR MORE DETAILS.
IN ADDITION TO THE SATURDAY FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS, EACH AFTERNOON
FROM SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY WILL ALSO LIKELY FEATURE AT LEAST
NEAR-CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS. HOWEVER, WINDS WILL NOT BE
AS STRONG AS THOSE SATURDAY.
FINALLY, ALTHOUGH STILL SEVERAL DAYS AWAY AND SUBJECT TO PLENTY
OF FORECAST UNCERTAINTY, OUR NEXT LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM COULD BRING
STRONG WINDS GUSTING TO AT LEAST 45 MPH, ALONG WITH SOME
ACCUMULATING SNOW TO OUR AREA TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY
DAYTIME.
SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT
SPOTTERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO
REPORT ANY POSSIBLE DAMAGE FROM STRONG
NORTHWEST WINDS OVERNIGHT INTO SATURDAY, AND ALSO ANY
