Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Omaha/Valley NE
326 PM CDT Wed Apr 8 2020

...Updated Forecast Discussion...

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 307 PM CDT Wed Apr 8 2020

Looking at visible satellite this afternoon, we see some
scattered clouds that have pushed south into our area. The
southern half of our area has remained fairly cloud-free with
temperatures topping out in the mid 70s. Farther north high
temperatures reached the low 60s. Northerly winds have picked up
behind a cold front that has passed through our area today. Winds
are currently gusting 25 to 35 mph across eastern Nebraska and
Western Iowa. Winds should die down overnight and we can expect
mostly clear to partly cloudy skies. Temps will dip down to near
or below freezing across much of the area.

The weather will remain fairly quiet during the day on Thursday
with the exception of the northwest winds which will become quite
gusty again during the day. At the surface, expect high pressure
to build into the area, but with an upper level system passing by
to our northeast, expect another cold front and breezy conditions.
High temperatures on Thursday will only top out in the upper 40s
in the north to mid 50s in the south. Latest short term guidance
suggest winds gusting as high as 40 knots during the day, so have
bumped up the winds slightly in the newest forecast update.
Additionally, a wind advisory has been issued for parts of eastern
Nebraska and western Iowa. With the gusty winds and relative
humidities in the 20-30% range, fire danger will be in the Very
High category. Like Wednesday night, winds will diminish overnight
with lows in the upper 20s.

Weather will remain quiet again on Friday with a surface high
pressure passing by to our south and light southerly flow returning.
Highs are expected to bounce back to the upper 50s and perhaps
approaching 60. Otherwise, attention will turn to the approaching
weather system over the weekend and maybe the return of some wintry
weather (Yuck!). Friday night into Saturday, an upper level trough
will swing eastward. Ahead of the main wave, a shortwave will move
across early Saturday morning and bring chances for rain to the
area. Highs on saturday will be similar to friday. The main system
will move into the area on Sunday. Expect a rainy Easter Sunday
this year with a shot of cold air moving in as well. 850mb
temperatures will drop as low as -10c on Sunday so it is quite
possible that we could see the change over to snow, especially in
northeast Nebraska. Surface temperatures are expected to top out
in the low 40s. There are still several differences in the models
with this weekend system, but it will be something to keep an eye
on in the coming days. &&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Thursday afternoon)
Issued at 1239 PM CDT Wed Apr 8 2020

Gusty north winds are the primary forecast concern for the TAF
period. A cold front has moved through the area and winds from the
north have increased in speed up to 25 kts sustained and are gusting
up to 40 kts. Gusty winds should persist until about 09/01Z.
After 01Z, winds should decrease to around 10 to 15 kts. Short
range guidance is indicating that there will likely be some low
level wind shear across the area beginning around 09/11Z. It
likely won't be strong enough to meet criteria, except for a
couple of hours near KOFK from 09/11Z to 09/13Z.
