River Flood Warning 65, NWS Omaha, NE

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Omaha/Valley NE
642 AM CDT Fri May 24 2019

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Sunday)
Issued at 338 AM CDT Fri May 24 2019

A strengthening  50 kt low level jet aided in the development and
intensification of a surface low over northeast Kansas and eastern
Nebraska overnight. Dewpoints managed to climb from the mid 50s into
the mid 60s across southeast Nebraska and southwest Iowa, as a warm
front associated with this system drifted north through the region.
PWATs increased to 1.7-1.6 across southern portions of the forecast
area overnight, well above the climatological daily max for our
area.  Early morning forecast soundings continued to depict a strong
wind profile with plenty of low level moisture. This environment
resulted in the development of a couple rounds of strong to severe
showers and thunderstorms moving through the area, producing a
few inches of heavy rainfall, strong winds, and potential for a
few areas of rotation, leading to a Tornado Watch through the
early morning hours.

The majority of storms are expected to move out this, with
clearing skies expected across the northwestern 2/3 of the
forecast area. However, precipitation chances will increase once
again across southeast Nebraska and southern Iowa Friday afternoon
and evening as convection develops along the cold front trailing
behind the aforementioned departing low. There's a marginal risk
for large hail and damaging winds across southeast
Nebraska/southwest Iowa Friday afternoon and evening. And, while
heaviest rain is expected to remain just to our southeast in
Kansas and Missouri, there is still the potential for an inch or
more of heavy rain across extreme southeast Nebraska and southwest
Iowa. Therefore, we included this area in a Flash Flood Watch for
this morning through early Saturday morning.

Another developing surface low will pass through eastern Nebraska
Saturday afternoon, draping another frontal boundary across the
southeastern half of the CWA. Steep lapse rates, abundant low
level moisture, and moderate deep shear and instability will lead
to yet another severe weather risk over the area. Large hail and
damaging winds will be the primary threats once again.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday night through Thursday)
Issued at 338 AM CDT Fri May 24 2019

Active weather continues through the extended period with several
round of showers and thunderstorms bringing additional severe
weather threats and heavy rainfall across already saturated soils.
More northerly upper level flow finally returns midweek, bringing a
better chance for dry weather Wednesday through Thursday. But this
reprieve won't last for long with active weather returning Friday
and into the weekend.
