We will be just as hot as the past couple days in Lincoln, a third day of temperatures in the middle and upper 90s wearing on us.
Lincoln and Omaha are within the six counties to be upgraded to an Extreme Heat Warning for Tuesday afternoon. That will be in effect from noon until 8 p.m. Tuesday night. The heat index will be around 110-115° again.
Elsewhere in southeast Nebraska, a Heat Advisory is in place for a heat index in the lower 100s expected. This has been an update since our morning show.
Grueling triple-digit “feels like” temperatures will be the case all afternoon. Another day of July summer heat and humidity!
Each location across southeast Nebraska will climb between 100-115° during the hottest part of the day.
We get really hot and humid ahead of another cold front that is expected to drive some stronger storms through the state today. Starting up this afternoon, storms race out of Colorado and out of South Dakota, merging in Nebraska tonight…
