DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1130 PM CDT SAT JUN 13 2026
AFTER AN ACTIVE STRETCH OF WEATHER, A WELCOMED RESPITE HAS
ARRIVED. A COLD FRONT HAS PUSHED THROUGH THE REGION LATE THIS
EVENING AS AN AMPLIFYING TROUGH CONTINUES TO DIG INTO THE
CENTRAL AND EASTERN CONUS. BEHIND THE COLD FRONT, COOLER AND
DRIER AIR CONTINUES TO FILTER IN. BY SUNRISE ON SUNDAY, A JACKET
MAY BE REQUIRED AS A COOL NORTH WIND WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE
50S IS EXPECTED. HIGH PRESSURE WILL SETTLE INTO THE REGION BY
SUNDAY AFTERNOON, OFFERING UP TEMPERATURES IN THE 70S UNDER
MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES. A SIMILAR FORECAST BEGINS THE WORK WEEK AS
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS OVER THE REGION. TEMPERATURES
START IN THE 50S ONCE AGAIN, BUT AFTERNOON HIGHS INCREASE INTO
THE LOWER 80S ON MONDAY. SKIES REMAIN MOSTLY SUNNY. THE SAME
WILL LARGELY HOLD TRUE FOR TUESDAY. THE ONE EXCEPTION IS A LOW
CHANCE OF SHOWERS OR AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM AS A WEAK COLD
FRONT SWEEPS ACROSS THE REGION EARLY TUESDAY MORNING.
OUR NEXT CHANCE OF RAIN IS NOT SET TO ARRIVE UNTIL WEDNESDAY. A
MORE PROMINENT TROUGH BEGINS TO DIG TOWARDS THE CENTRAL PLAINS
BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. AHEAD OF THIS, THE RIDGE WILL BUILD
SLIGHTLY, PUSHING OUR TEMPERATURES INTO THE LOWER 90S. AS THE
TROUGH MOVES OVERHEAD, ANOTHER FRONT IS ANTICIPATED TO PUSH
ACROSS THE AREA. ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE FRONT HAS THE BEST
CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY, ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTERNOON
AND EVENING HOURS ACROSS FAR EASTERN NEBRASKA AND WESTERN IOWA.
WITH THE FRONT PUSHING THROUGH, THURSDAY APPEARS A LITTLE COOLER
AND DRY. THE EVOLUTION OF THE PATTERN REMAINS A BIT UNCERTAIN BY
THE END OF THE WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND. THAT SAID, A WEAKENING OF
THE EASTERN CONUS TROUGH, A BUILDING OF THE CENTRAL CONUS RIDGE,
AND A DIGGING WESTERN CONUS TROUGH WOULD LEND TO A WARMER AND
POTENTIALLY MORE ACTIVE FORECAST PATTERN.
