STORM DEVELOPMENT AS OF 20Z WITH A VERY WEAK CAP IN THE EASTERN
PANHANDLE...WHERE INITIATION REMAINS POSSIBLE.

&&

.SHORT TERM DISCUSSION (TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY)...

TONIGHT...THE UPPER LOW CURRENTLY LOCATED ACROSS CENTRAL
SASKATCHEWAN WILL DRAG A TROUGH ACROSS THE DAKOTAS/NEBRASKA THIS
EVENING/OVERNIGHT. A COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP SOUTHEAST THROUGH CENTRAL
NEBRASKA AFTER MIDNIGHT. ONGOING CLUSTER OF STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS
IN CHERRY COUNTY HAS RECENTLY BECOME OUTFLOW DOMINANT. THIS FORECAST
TO EVOLVE INTO AN MCS AND TRACK EAST SOUTHEAST NEAR 20 MPH. THE MOST
WIDESPREAD THREAT WILL BE VERY HEAVY RAINFALL WITH EVENING CONCERNS
FOR FLASH FLOODING AND LONGER TERM CONCERN FOR INCREASED FLOODING
ALONG THE ELKHORN RIVER BASIN. EXACT TRACK OF HEAVY RAINFALL MAY GO
JUST SOUTH OF THE BASIN. HOWEVER...IF AVERAGE RAINFALL EXCEEDS 1
INCH...THE RIVER WILL LIKELY RISES ABOVE FLOOD STAGE AT ATKINSON AND
MAY REMAIN SO THE NEXT 3-4 DAYS. FOR THIS EVENING STORMS ARE LIKELY
NEAR AND NORTH OF HWY 2. THE SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST WILL BE HINDERED
SOMEWHAT BY PESKY STRATUS STILL PERSISTING INTO THIS AFTERNOON.
THEREFORE...DEVELOPMENT/COVERAGE LOOKS TO BE SCATTERED AT BEST. MOST
OF THE ACTIVITY SHOULD DIMINISH OR END SOON AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH COLD
FRONT AND UPPER TROUGH ADVANCEMENT EASTWARD.

MONDAY/MONDAY NIGHT...MONDAY TO BE DRY AND COOLER WITH HIGHS 76 TO

BUILDING ACROSS THE CENTRAL CONUS. A BREEZY SOUTH/SOUTHEAST WIND
WITH HIGHS NEAR 90 FAR SOUTHWEST TO THE LOWER 80S NORTHEAST. THEN
TUESDAY NIGHT...ELEVATED STORMS BE DEVELOP DUE TO INSTABILITY WITH
MUCAPES OF 1000-1500 J/KG AND A 45KT SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL JET.

WEDNESDAY...A HOT DAY FORECAST WITH THERMAL RIDGE ESTABLISHED ACROSS
THE WESTERN HIGH PLAINS. AREAS IN THE WEST SHOULD TOP OUT IN THE
UPPER 90S...POSSIBLY 100. THE EAST WILL RANGE FROM 90 TO 95. UPPER
RIDGE WEDNESDAY WILL REACH ITS PEAK ACROSS CENTRAL CONUS AS UPPER
TROUGH ADVANCES INTO THE WESTERN GREAT BASIN.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION (THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)

UPPER RIDGE BREAKDOWN WITH WARM AIR ADVECTION AND SOUTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT TO BRING A HOT DAY TO ALL OF WESTERN AND NORTH CENTRAL
NEBRASKA. HIGHS FROM 95 TO 101 FORECAST. GFS AND ECMWF INDICATING A
COLD FRONT TO PASS THURSDAY NIGHT. WILL MAINTAIN A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR
STORMS WITH DRY AND COOLER FRIDAY WITH HIGHS 85 TO 90.

FORECAST TO BE DRY..ALTHOUGH A FEW STORMS POSSIBLE WITH WEAK
BOUNDARY AND RIDGE RUNNER TYPE STORM DEVELOPMENT POSSIBLE. HIGHS
UPPER 80S TO MID 90S.

&&

UNSTABLE AIRMASS WILL LEAD TO WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS...SOME
SEVERE...THIS EVENING OVER MUCH OF THE AREA...ESPECIALLY ACROSS
NORTHERN NEBRASKA. HAVE INCLUDED THUNDERSTORMS AT BOTH KVTN AND KLBF
TERMINAL FORECASTS...HOWEVER EXPECT AMENDMENTS TO ACCOUNT FOR TIMING
ADJUSTMENTS AS THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP AND TIMING BECOMES MORE CLEAR.
OVERNIGHT THE CONVECTION WILL PUSH EAST...WITH A POSSIBLE BRIEF
PERIOD OF MVFR STRATUS. BY MID MORNING ANY STRATUS THAT DOES DEVELOP
ACROSS THE AREA WILL LIFT WITH VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH THE DAY ON
MONDAY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
FLOODING CONTINUES ALONG THE ELKHORN RIVER IN CENTRAL HOLT

STAGE OF 7.5 FEET. REPORTS FROM ONEILL STILL REPORT WATER IN CARNEY
PARK...THUS HAVE EXTENDED THE WARNING TILL MONDAY MORNING. HEAVY
RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE THIS EVENING AND MAY CAUSE THE RIVER TO RISE
AND REMAIN ABOVE FLOOD STAGE BEYOND MONDAY MORNING. MEANWHILE
LITTLE CHANGE TO THE THE NORTH PLATTE AND PLATTE RIVER
FLOODING...HOWEVER CHANCE FOR HEAVY RAINFALL THIS EVENING/OVERNIGHT
AS A FRONT PUSHES ACROSS THE AREA. THIS MAY CAUSE A SLIGHT RISE
EARLY IN THE WEEK.

HEAVY RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE WITH STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS
EVENING. MOVEMENT SHOULD BE FAST ENOUGH TO PREVENT WIDESPREAD FLASH
FLOODING...HOWEVER SOME THUNDERSTORMS MAY TRACK OVER THE SAME
LOCATION. THUS WILL NEED TO MONITOR 3 AND 6 HOUR RAINFALL TOTALS.
