THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR MOST OF EASTERN NEBRASKA AND
SOUTHWEST IOWA.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT AND MONDAY

SEVERE STORMS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT. STORMS
DEVELOPING NORTH OF A WARM FRONT IN EAST CENTRAL NEBRASKA AND
SOUTHWEST IOWA COULD PRODUCE VERY LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS
THIS EVENING. THERE IS A SMALL CHANCE A TORNADO COULD ALSO FORM IN
THIS AREA IF STORMS WOULD BE MORE SURFACE BASED. HOWEVER...A
SOMEWHAT HIGHER CHANCE OF TORNADOES EXISTS CLOSER TO THE WARM
FRONT FROM CRETE AND FAIRBURY EAST THROUGH FALLS CITY...ALTHOUGH
STORMS IN THIS REGION ARE CONDITIONAL IN BREAKING A CAP THAT
PREVAILED ACROSS THAT REGION AS OF LATE AFTERNOON. ADDITIONAL
STORMS DEVELOPING IN THE SAND HILLS OF NEBRASKA WILL PUSH
SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE AREA THIS EVENING. DAMAGING WINDS AND VERY
LARGE HAIL WOULD BE THE PRIMARY THREATS FROM THESE
STORMS...ALTHOUGH AN ISOLATED TORNADO CAN NOT BE RULED OUT THIS
EVENING FROM THIS ACTIVITY AS WELL. IN ADDITION TO THE SEVERE
WEATHER THREAT...LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN IS POSSIBLE FROM ANY
THUNDERSTORM TONIGHT. TRAINING OF THE STORMS ACROSS EAST CENTRAL
AND SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA INTO SOUTHWEST IOWA COULD PRODUCE A LITTLE
WIDER AREA OF HEAVY RAIN AND A FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED
FOR THE AREA TONIGHT SOUTHEAST OF A COLUMBUS TO WAYNE LINE.

WIDESPREAD FLOODING WILL CONTINUE ALONG THE MISSOURI RIVER.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY

ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS COULD LINGER EARLY MONDAY MORNING...BUT
SEVERE STORMS ARE NOT EXPECTED. ANOTHER SLIGHT CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS IS FORECAST FOR TUESDAY NIGHT AND EARLY WEDNESDAY.
ANOTHER COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO CROSS THE PLAINS THURSDAY NIGHT AND
FRIDAY WHICH COULD BRING A FEW MORE STORMS.

HOT TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO RETURN TO THE AREA BY MID WEEK
WITH TEMPERATURES REACHING 95 TO 100 BY THURSDAY ACROSS MUCH OF
THE AREA.

MODERATE TO MAJOR FLOODING WILL CONTINUE ALONG THE MISSOURI RIVER
THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE SUMMER.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

STORM SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE NEEDED THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
SEVERE WEATHER WATCHES ARE EXPECTED THIS EVENING.
