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

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight.

This afternoon, elevated to near-critical fire weather conditions
are likely within most counties along and especially south of the
Nebraska- Kansas border, due to the combination of north-
northwest wind gusting to 20 to 25 MPH, and relative humidity as
low as 15 to 25 percent. Briefly critical conditions cannot be
ruled out, especially in Rooks County Kansas, where a few hours of
wind gusts over 25 MPH would be most favored.

Farther north, the fire weather threat in most of the Nebraska
outlook area, although not zero, will be held in check by lighter
winds, with gusts averaging under 20 MPH.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday.

Late Wednesday afternoon into early Thursday morning, there is a
chance for thunderstorms across much of the outlook area,
including the possibility for our first few severe storms of the
year. The majority of the outlook area is currently under a
Marginal Risk of severe storms, with a Slight Risk of severe
storms clipping far southeast portions of our area, within and
near Thayer County Nebraska. The primary threats with any severe
storms currently appear to be large hail and/or damaging winds.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation will not be needed through tonight.
