What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this high wind warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Omaha, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before this high wind warning went out at Jan 17, 11:41 AM CST, 3 hours 18 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jan 17, 11:41 AM CST, 3 hours 18 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Omaha/Valley NE
1141 AM CST Fri Jan 17 2020

...Updated Aviation Forecast Discussion...

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 253 AM CST Fri Jan 17 2020

Today and Tonight

Very challenging forecast setting up today with multiple wintry
precipitation types expected. Existing forecast in overall good
shape, but made minor tweaks to slightly higher snowfall amounts,
but also increased the wind gusts tonight into Saturday.

Snow was already spreading in southeast NE, reaching a line to
Albion to Lincoln to Falls City. This will continue to overspread
the region this morning, with snow covering the entire forecast
area by 12z. Some of the highres models suggest there could still
be an hour of a wintry mix on the front side waiting for full
column saturation. Snow becomes moderate to heavy at times this
morning with visibility down to 1/2 to 3/4 mile. 00z HREF data
suggests snowfall rates could approach 3/4 to 1" per hour for a
few hours at any given location, with 6 hourly amounts 2 to 4" CWA
wide by Noon.

Then the forecast becomes increasingly challenging as a dry slot
moves in aloft this afternoon, which removes ice from the column.
At the same time, surface temperatures continue to warm. We'll
still see precipitation through the afternoon, but it should
become more of a drizzle or freezing drizzle mix depending on
surface temps and location. For southeast NE, temperatures do
warm to freezing or above, which will help mitigate any potential
icing concerns this afternoon there. Elsewhere, for northeast NE
and western IA, temps could be right around freezing, thus
freezing rain or freezing drizzle could allow for a little more
icing in these areas this afternoon and evening.

The drizzle or freezing drizzle continues early in the evening,
but by then, a cold front will be arriving, sweeping into and
through the area by midnight and beyond. This will bring sharply
colder temps back into the region, which will likely flash freeze
wet road conditions, but also switch drizzle back to snow. Winds
could gust 40 to 55 mph tonight as the arctic air rushes back in,
so this will also create areas of blowing snow or flurries
overnight.

Storm total snowfall will range 2 to 5 inches across the forecast
area, and some of that will melt this afternoon as temperatures
warm with daytime insolation. Icing amounts are forecast from just
a trace to a tenth or two across portions of east central NE and
western IA.

Headline Considerations

A winter weather advisory will remain in effect for all areas
through 12z Saturday, for a variety of winter weather impacts.
Wind gusts could reach 60 mph in northeast NE tonight, so we may
have to consider upgrading to a winter storm warning or high wind
warning for a few counties in that area, but will let the next
forecast shift take another look. Not confidant that we can meet
blizzard criteria of 3 hours of 1/4 mile visibility tonight in
the blowing snow, but it's something we'll take a closer look at
too for headline upgrades in northeast NE as well.

WSR88D Issues

KOAX radar remains offline due to a hardware upgrade. Technicians
hoped to have the radar operational Thursday evening, but are
waiting for additional parts Friday morning. Users are advised to
use a regional mosaic for radar data in the local area.

Saturday through Monday

Bitter cold air remains in place across the region with Sunday the
coldest day. Very windy conditions expected Saturday with some
lingering patchy blowing snow, but no additional falling snow.
Temperatures Saturday and Sunday nights in the single digits
above and below zero, with wind chill values 10 to 20 below at
times. Extreme northeast NE and northwest IA may need a wind chill
advisory Sunday morning.

Tuesday through Thursday

Temperatures moderate Tuesday and Wednesday back into the upper
30s to lower 40s. Another weather system could bring a chance of
rain and snow Wednesday. Models however diverge on solutions for
Wednesday night into Thursday. GFS brings another substantial
system into the area, but the EC is farther north and keeps the
area dry, thus forecast confidence is pretty low by day 7.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday afternoon)
Issued at 1133 AM CST Fri Jan 17 2020

Predominantly freezing drizzle is expected throughout this
afternoon with precipitation diminishing from southwest to
northeast through the day. This will create a light glazing of ice
on any untreated areas. Some visibility restrictions are possible
in areas of any falling precipitation as well. Toward the end of
the TAF period, surface winds will turn to the northwest and gust
over 30kts with some 40kt gusts likely, espcially at KOFK.

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of southwest
Iowa...west central Iowa...east central Nebraska...northeast
Nebraska and southeast Nebraska.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect through tonight. Snow will
continue to diminish and transition to freezing drizzle or
drizzle through the afternoon. A very strong cold front coming in
tonight will usher in sharply colder temperatures, with wet roads
possibly flash freezing, and drizzle changing back to light snow
or flurries. Strong northwest winds could gust 45 to 55 mph at
times tonight, which could create areas of blowing snow. Total
snow accumulations could range 2 to 5 inches across the region.
The strong winds could also create isolated power outages.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday

On Saturday night into Sunday morning, wind chill readings could
fall to 15 to 20 below zero across portions of northeast Nebraska
into west central Iowa.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation will not be needed, but spotters are encouraged
to report snow amounts to the National Weather Service.
