There is a marginal risk that a storm or two could produce locally damaging winds. While most of the area will receive an inch or less of rain, there is potential for some locations to receive more than two inches, possibly leading to flooding if storms repeatedly move over the same locations. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday Another round of thunderstorms is expected to develop Saturday afternoon into Saturday evening, and is most likely to be focused southeast of a Columbus to Sioux City line. The strongest storms may become severe with large hail and damaging winds. There is also a small chance for a tornado or two to develop. These storms will also produce heavy rain which could lead to flash flooding of multiple storms move over the same locations. Sunday evening and overnight will feature another chance for strong storms, mainly over northeast Nebraska. Almost every day next week features another chance of thunderstorms across eastern Nebraska and western Iowa. While the exact timing remains in question, some of these rounds of storms will be capable of producing severe weather and heavy rainfall. Very hot temperatures will also develop Sunday and Monday afternoons with highs in the mid to upper 90s and heat index values exceeding 100, leading to elevated risk of heat illness. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is not anticipated through tonight. $$
