This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for south central Nebraska and

portions of north central Kansas.



.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.



Through early this afternoon, north winds will remain 

moderately-strong across our forecast area, with sustained speeds

commonly 25 to 35 MPH, and gusting to around 45 MPH. However, 

winds will gradually weaken with time this afternoon, especially 

from around 2 PM onward.



Although fire weather concerns this afternoon are not as extreme

as they were yesterday due to cooler temperatures and higher

relative humidity, our entire area will still observe elevated to

near-critical fire weather conditions. This is due to a

combination of north winds still gusting 30-40 MPH through much of

this afternoon, along with relative humidity dropping to as low 

as 25-35 percent. 



.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday.



On most afternoons Monday through Friday, at least near-critical 

fire weather conditions appear likely within various parts of our

forecast area...whenever there is an overlap of winds gusting at 

least 20 MPH, and relative humidity falling to 25 percent or 

lower. At this time, no afternoons appear to carry significant 

concern for outright-critical conditions, but this could change

as things get closer in time.
