A FEW WEAK STORMS BUBBLED UP ALONG A BOUNDARY IN FAR SOUTHWEST IOWA
AND SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA FRIDAY EVENING. ENHANCED STRETCHING POTENTIAL
ALLOWED A COUPLE OF FUNNEL CLOUDS TO SNEAK INTO VIEW BEFORE STORMS
DISSIPATED SHORTLY AFTER SUNSET.
QUIET CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE OVERNIGHT WITH LIGHT AND
VARIABLE WINDS AND CLEARING SKIES. WITH THESE CONDITIONS COMES THE
POTENTIAL FOR PATCHY FOG TO DEVELOP. THE BEST CHANCE FOR FOG WILL
LIE PRIMARILY ALONG AND EAST OF THE MISSOURI RIVER, HOWEVER SOME
LOWER VISIBILITIES COULD SNEAK INTO EASTERN NEBRASKA BY EARLY
SATURDAY MORNING.
ANY LINGERING PATCHY FOG SHOULD DISSIPATE SHORTLY AFTER SUNRISE,
WITH WARM AND MOSTLY SUNNY CONDITIONS PREVAILING THROUGH THE DAY.
HIGHS SATURDAY AFTERNOON ARE FORECAST TO RANGE FROM THE MID 80S OVER
SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA/SOUTHWEST IOWA TO THE LOW 90S IN NORTHEAST
NEBRASKA.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD OVER THE WEST-CENTRAL CONUS
THIS WEEKEND AND THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK. FOR THOSE OF
US IN THE CENTRAL PLAINS, THIS MEANS THAT HOT AND DRY WEATHER WILL
CONTINUE. LOOK FOR AFTERNOON HIGHS TO CONTINUE TO CLIMB THROUGH THE
UPPER 80S AND INTO THE 90S OVER THE COMING WEEK.
LUCKILY, MODEL SOLUTIONS INDICATE MOST OF THE GULF MOISTURE WILL
REMAIN WELL TO THE SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA, LIMITING EXCESSIVELY
HUMID CONDITIONS. HOWEVER, EXPECT DEWPOINTS ARE AT LEAST SLIGHTLY
UNDERDONE WITHOUT TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE EFFECTS OF "CORN SWEAT"
DURING THIS TIME OF YEAR. FOR NOW, EXPECT HEAT INDICIES IN THE UPPER
90S LIKELY CREEPING INTO THE LOW 100S FOR AT LEAST A DAY OR 2, BY
MIDDLE TO LATE NEXT WEEK.
AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SUNDAY/
ISSUED AT 609 PM CDT FRI JUL 10 2026
A FEW STORMS CONTINUE TO FESTER OVER FAR SOUTHWEST IOWA THIS
EVENING, BUT SHOULD EVENTUALLY DISSIPATE SHORTLY AFTER 00Z.
LIGHT VARIABLE WINDS AND CLEARING SKIES OVERNIGHT COULD SET US
UP WITH SOME PATCHY FOG BY EARLY SATURDAY MORNING. RIGHT NOW
THE BEST CHANCE FOR MVFR TO IFR VISIBILITIES WILL RESIDE OVER
WESTERN IOWA, PERHAPS CREEPING INTO KOMA BETWEEN 11-15Z. FOG
WILL BURN OFF EARLY SATURDAY MORNING WITH VFR CONDITIONS AND
LIGHT WINDS PREVAILING FOR THE REST OF THE DAY.
