Severe storm watch for Omaha until FRI 11 PM

3 Things to Know

  • Severe storms possible Friday evening (Level: 3/5)
  • There are some drier trends now for the 4th of July
  • Not as hot or humid next week

Forecast

Severe thunderstorms will be possible after 5-6pm. The main concern with these Friday evening storms will be damaging winds of 60-80mph and very large hail around 1.50-2.50″. These storms will become widespread and last for several hours into the overnight hours, so the risk for flash flooding will become higher as the night goes on. Rain amounts will be around 1.0″ to 3.0″ tonight.

Eventually, this rain will exit the region either overnight, or early into Saturday morning. We’ll start out Saturday cloudy, but mostly dry. By the afternoon some sunshine will start to pop back out. Highs will be around the upper 80s to near 90 on Saturday afternoon…
