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

.DAY ONE...Tonight.

Late this evening through the rest of the overnight hours,
chances for at least isolated to scattered thunderstorms will
gradually spread across the outlook area from west-to-east. While
the vast majority of storms should be fairly weak, a few could
become strong enough to produce wind gusts up to around 50 MPH
and/or small hail.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday.

Tuesday into Tuesday night, a strong low pressure system will
bring thunderstorm chances to the entire outlook area. During the
morning, activity will likely be fairly spotty and weak. However,
during the afternoon and evening, the entire outlook area is
under a Slight Risk for severe storms, as a fairly strong cold
front sweeps across the area. The primary threats with any severe
storms will be large hail up to around golf ball size, and wind
gusts of at least 60 MPH. The main risk for large hail will occur
with any more isolated storms, but it is likely that activity
will eventually grow into a larger-scale line or complex,
prompting an an increasing threat for damaging winds. In
addition, there is at least a low threat for a few tornadoes as
well. Storms will steadily vacate the outlook area from west-to-
east during the evening, and the vast majority of the area will
likely be storm- free by midnight, if not several hours earlier,
especially in western counties.

In the wake of Tuesday`s weather system, cooler, more fall-like
weather will settle into the region. Although still several days
away and not yet a certainty, temperatures Friday night into
Saturday morning are currently forecast to drop well into the 30s
across the entire outlook area, perhaps bringing the season`s
first threat of frost and sub-freezing temperatures. The coldest
temperatures in the low 30s are currently forecast across
portions of the outlook area mainly west of Highway 281.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotters activation is not expected to be needed through tonight.
