THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA AND
PORTIONS OF NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON AND POSSIBLY
INTO TONIGHT...WITH THE GREATEST CHANCE SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 6...
INCLUDING NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS. NO STRONG OR SEVERE STORMS ARE

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.

ON MONDAY AFTERNOON...THE COMBINATION OF NORTHERLY BREEZES
GUSTING 20 TO 25 MPH AND RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES FALLING TO
AROUND 25 PERCENT COULD PROMOTE NEAR-CRITICAL FIRE DANGER ACROSS
MUCH OF THE OUTLOOK AREA. HOWEVER...THIS POTENTIAL FIRE DANGER
WOULD LIKELY BE LESSENED FOR THOSE AREAS THAT MIGHT RECEIVE DECENT
RAINFALL DURING THE NEXT 24 HOURS.

BETWEEN TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT...THUNDERSTORM CHANCES
RETURN TO THE OUTLOOK AREA...WITH THE OVERALL BEST CHANCES
EXPECTED WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT. ALTHOUGH STILL
SEVERAL DAYS AWAY AND SUBJECT TO CHANGES IN THE FORECAST...THERE
CURRENTLY APPEARS TO BE AT LEAST A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE STORMS
PRIMARILY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

IN ADDITION...STRONG SOUTHERLY WINDS ARE EXPECTED WITHIN THE
OUTLOOK AREA ON WEDNESDAY...WITH SUSTAINED SPEEDS AVERAGING NEAR
30 MPH WITH HIGHER GUSTS.

LOOKING AHEAD TO NEXT WEEKEND...A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS
RETURNS TO THE AREA ON SATURDAY.
