Hazardous Weather Outlook...UPDATED National Weather Service Hastings NE 732 PM CDT Mon Apr 22 2024 KSZ005>007-017>019-NEZ039>041-046>049-060>064-072>077-082>087- 240045- Phillips-Smith-Jewell-Rooks-Osborne-Mitchell-Valley-Greeley-Nance- Sherman-Howard-Merrick-Polk-Dawson-Buffalo-Hall-Hamilton-York- Gosper-Phelps-Kearney-Adams-Clay-Fillmore-Furnas-Harlan-Franklin- Webster-Nuckolls-Thayer- 732 PM CDT Mon Apr 22 2024 This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for south central Nebraska and portions of north central Kansas. .DAY ONE...Tonight. Mainly between 10 PM and 4 AM, isolated to scattered thunderstorm activity is possible almost anywhere in the outlook area, but most favoring locations between the Highway 92 corridor in Nebraska, and the Highway 36 corridor in north central Kansas. Although most storms should be fairly weak, a few stronger storms capable of producing hail up to around the size of nickels and/or wind gusts up to around 50 MPH do appear possible. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday. Tuesday afternoon, near-critical fire weather conditions are likely across the outlook area, along with more localized, briefly-critical conditions in some places. This will be due to the combination of north-northwest winds gusting 25 to 35 MPH, and relative humidity as low as 18 to 25 percent. Very late Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, at least patchy frost development cannot be ruled out in some areas mainly near and north of Interstate 80 in Nebraska, but sub-freezing temperatures are not anticipated. Thunderstorm chances return Thursday and continue off and on into the weekend. Some storms Thursday afternoon and overnight may be strong to severe, especially near and south of Interstate 80. Another round of severe thunderstorms cannot be ruled out during the day Friday mainly in eastern parts of our area, but this will depend on factors such as how quickly a front is able to sweep through the region, and perhaps also by how prior thunderstorm activity unfolds Thursday night into Friday morning. Additional thunderstorm chances are in the forecast between Saturday night and Sunday night. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation should not be needed through tonight, but any reports of possible small hail or gusty thunderstorm winds would be appreciated. && More information may be obtained at the following web page: https://www.weather.gov/hastings $$ Pfannkuch
