THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA AND
PARTS OF NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT

CENTRAL NEBRASKA AND PORTIONS OF NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS TONIGHT.  THE
BEST THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL EXIST NORTH OF A LINE EXTENDING

WINDS ALOFT WILL HELP SOME OF THESE STORMS TO BECOME SEVERE.  THE
PRIMARY THREAT FROM THESE STORMS WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING
WINDS ALTHOUGH AN ISOLATED TORNADO OR TWO WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE
GENERALLY EAST OF HIGHWAY 281 BUT NORTH OF THE KANSAS NEBRASKA STATE
LINE.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY

THE STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE FOCUS FOR SCATTERED STORMS
MONDAY AND TUESDAY ACROSS THE REGION...WITH COVERAGE MORE NUMEROUS IN
SOUTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA. THERE IS AT LEAST A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE
WEATHER BOTH DAYS.

AFTER A BRIEF COOL DOWN EARLY THIS WEEK...THE HOT WEATHER RETURN AS
HIGH TEMPERATURES FLIRT WITH...OR TOP THE CENTURY MARK BY WEEKS END.
