113 AM CDT Tue May 28 2019

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1146 PM CDT Mon May 27 2019

Severe thunderstorm watch extended through 07Z as storms persist
across the southwest and lift northeast across Custer County.
Overnight the stagnant pattern and slow movement of the frontal
system will keep an abundance of moisture for heavy rain
potential. Several Flash Flood warnings were issued as rainfall
rates of 1 to 3 inches increased runoff rates, while the high
precipitable water ratios favor good rainfall rates with the

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday night)
Issued at 322 PM CDT Mon May 27 2019

Isolated thunderstorm development expected late this afternoon
will increase in coverage this evening. Surface low pressure
centered near Denver with a warm front extending across southern
Nebraska will be a focus for development. Deep southwest flow
aloft will be in place with strong 0-6km shear from 60-70 kts
across swrn area early this evening. Most unstable CAPES to range
around 1500 J/KG. Nearly all of western Nebraska is in a slight
risk for severe thunderstorms with an enhanced risk south of
Highway 2. Large hail and damaging winds will be possible with an
isolated tornado also possible. Heaviest rainfall amounts to be
west of Valentine through Oshkosh where an inch or locally higher
is expected. Less storm coverage to the east, where a quarter to
half inch possible. Upscale growth is expected with storms
developing, with POPs becoming categorical northwest to likely
north of Interstate 80.

On Tuesday, the upper low will begin to move slowly from north
central into northeast Colorado. The risk for severe weather
should shift east with strong storms still possible east of
Stapleton through O'Neill. Rainfall amounts will be heaviest
across north central Nebraska up to a half inch.

As the upper low moves from southwest toward northeast Nebraska
Tuesday night, areas northwest of the upper low center can expect
the heaviest rainfall, which again includes north central
Nebraska.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Monday)
Issued at 322 PM CDT Mon May 27 2019

Wednesday into Thursday, the upper low will move into Iowa and
eventually the southern Great Lakes. The GFS is much slower moving
the low out of the area, with shower chances lingering into
Thursday. Highs to remain cool on Wednesday from near 60 to the
low 60s. Warming to near 70 on Thursday. Highs mainly from 75 to
80 Friday through Monday. Shower chances return Saturday through
Monday over most of the area, although models diverge on timing
as an upper ridge builds into the Central U.S.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Tuesday night)
Issued at 104 AM CDT Tue May 28 2019

Immediate aviation concerns revolve around isolated severe
thunderstorms across southwestern NEB. Wherein threat for
thunderstorms will continue through the small hours. Elsewhere,
predominantly rain or scattered-numerous showers are expected to
prevail, albeit the latter with embedded thunderstorms cannot be
ruled out across parts of the Sandhills. Meanwhile, IFR-MVFR
conditions are anticipated to prevail by and large and take hold,
especially once convective activity wanes late tonight. Sub-VFR
conditions are then anticipated across much of the area the next
24 hours. Isolated thunderstorms will be possible again tomorrow,
though severe storms look unlikely, except possibly for eastern
portions of north central NEB.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 322 PM CDT Mon May 27 2019

River levels continue to fall on the Elkhorn river at Atkinson
and Ewing. Atkinson gauge has fallen to the minor flood stage
of 7.50 ft. A flood warning remains in effect for west central
Holt county through early this evening. Elsewhere, a Flood
Warning remains in effect in northern Brown County though
officials reported water levels have decreased there.

Otherwise, rainfall totals were increased slightly with amounts
near 2 inches across the northwest Sandhills. Storms with
significant rainfall totals remain possible tonight through
Tuesday night with the Flood Watch in effect until 12Z Wednesday.
Overall, total rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches are forecast
across the watch area.

340 PM CDT Mon May 27 2019 /240 PM MDT Mon May 27 2019/

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of western and
north central Nebraska.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

Isolated to numerous severe thunderstorms will be possible this
evening and into the overnight. The area of greatest concern
remains across the Nebraska Panhandle through central Nebraska.
Severe storms will be capable of producing large hail, damaging
wind gusts, a few isolated tornadoes, and torrential rainfall.

Flood warnings and advisories remain in effect across portions of
north central Nebraska. Please refer to the latest flood products
for the latest details.

A Flood Watch is in effect for portions of northern Nebraska and
portions of the Sandhills. Any additional rainfall from
thunderstorms may worsen ongoing flooding or cause new flooding
on already saturated soils.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.

Thunderstorms will be possible for both Tuesday and Wednesday,
however, severe weather is not anticipated but we can't rule out
an isolated strong storm.

A Flood Watch will continue into early Wednesday morning for
portions of northern Nebraska and much of the Sandhills. Rainfall
amounts between a quarter inch to one inch is in the forecast for
Tuesday through early Wednesday morning. The heaviest rainfall is
expected to occur across northwestern Nebraska Tuesday and
Tuesday night. The additional rainfall will increase the flooding
potential due to already saturated soils, increased runoff, and
high water tables.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotters are encouraged to report hail, wind, and flooding to the
National Weather Service over the next few days.
