LONGWAVE RIDGING OVER THE CENTRAL CONUS WILL BRING A PERIOD OF
QUIET WEATHER FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS. AS HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS
EAST, SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL ALLOW US TO GRADUALLY WARM UP HEADING
INTO SATURDAY. SATURDAY AFTERNOON HIGHS ARE EXPECTED TO BE IN
THE UPPER 40S AND LOW 50S.
ON SUNDAY, A NEGATIVELY TILTED SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS EXPECTED TO
EJECT OUT INTO THE NORTHERN GREAT PLAINS. AT THE SURFACE, A COLD
FRONT WILL SWEEP NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST ACROSS OUR AREA. NO
PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED WITH THIS SYSTEM. WITH THE COLD FRONT
MOVING THROUGH DURING THE AFTERNOON, THERE WILL BE SUBSTANTIAL
SPREAD IN AFTERNOON HIGHS ACROSS THE REGION. PORTIONS OF
NORTHEAST NEBRASKA WILL STRUGGLE TO WARM INTO THE MID 40S, WHILE
LOCATIONS IN FAR SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA WILL REACH NEAR 60 DEGREES.
POST-FRONTAL TEMPERATURES WILL BE MUCH MORE SEASONAL, IF NOT
SLIGHTLY BELOW AVERAGE. HIGH TEMPERATURES NEXT WEEK LOOK TO BE
IN THE 30S, WITH LOWS IN THE 10S AND LOWER 20S. UPPER-LEVEL FLOW
ALSO LOOKS TO BE MORE ZONAL BY NEXT WORK WEEK, SUGGESTING THERE
MAY BE INCREASED POTENTIAL FOR LOW-AMPLITUDE SHORT WAVES TO
BRING PERIODS OF CLOUDS, MAYBE SOME LIGHT PRECIP TO THE REGION,
PARTICULARLY BY THE END OF NEXT WEEK.
