The wind has shifted out of the south, blowing in smoke from burns happening in Kansas. This is lowering air quality in a lot of our neighborhoods, especially in southeast Nebraska. Take it easy if you are sensitive to smoky air. The smoke should thin out some this afternoon, improving air quality. Another round of smoke could blow into eastern Nebraska tonight.
The southerly wind, around 15-30 mph, will also pump in some warmer weather today! Highs will be in the upper 70s with a lot of sunshine.
Overnight, a couple isolated storms will pop up, likely between 3 and 7 in the morning. While many of us stay dry, the storms could be strong to severe. If we see a severe storm early Thursday, hail would be the main concern. Everyone should be dry by the morning commute with temperatures in the upper 50s, making for a pretty warm start to the day…
