Taking a broad overview of Wednesday-Friday's weather across our 30-county forecast area in Nebraska and north central KS, here are the highlights: 1) Temperatures will be seasonably-warm, with highs topping out somewhere in the 80s on most days (any low-90s mainly in our KS counties)...2) MOST places will be dry MOST of the time (no larger-scale areas of rain/thunderstorms expected). That being said, at least spotty showers/primarily weak thunderstorms could occur mainly at night...mostly favoring our western counties (counties west of Highway 281)...3) Winds will be rather light Wed-Thurs, but Friday will become a little breezy out of the south with gusts 15-25 MPH common.
