Weather Summary for Portions of the Central Plains
National Weather Service Hastings NE
603 AM CDT Tue Jun 18 2024

Focusing exclusively on these next 48 hours of weather across our
central/south central Nebraska and north central Kansas area...there
are clearly two big stories in our upcoming weather. First of
all...a big...albeit short-lived cool down is on the
way...particularly for Wednesday...which will be the coolest day of
the month. Secondly...although it will certainly NOT rain
non-stop...there are very high chances for occasional showers and
thunderstorms at various times...and in various parts of our
area...starting this afternoon...and continuing through Wednesday
night. Over the course of this entire time...MOST of our coverage
area will likely pick up between one-half inch and 2 inches of
rain...with localized pockets of higher totals probable
too...especially south and east of the Tri Cities and down into
Kansas. Unfortunately...a few storms this afternoon and evening
could also be severe...so keep an eye on the weather especially
between 4 and 10 PM. Getting back to temperatures...highs today will
actually vary quite a bit across our coverage area as a cold front
passes through...ranging from only the 70s in northern and western
communities such as Greeley and Lexington Nebraska...to as warm as
the upper 80s to lower 90s in southern and eastern towns such as
Hebron Nebraska and Osborne Kansas. As earlier mentioned
though...the real cool-down comes Wednesday...with highs only in the
60s across most of our area...although especially parts of north
central Kansas could reach the 70s.
