This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for south central Nebraska and
portions of north central Kansas.

.DAY ONE...Rest of Tonight.

- Continued severe thunderstorm potential:
For several more  hours, at least spotty thunderstorm activity
will remain possible within parts of our forecast area, most of
which will either weaken or move out of our area by around
Midnight.

However, for now a Severe Thunderstorm Watch remain in effect for
most of our Nebraska counties both north of Interstate 80 and also
east of Highway 281, along with Mitchell, Jewell and Osborne
counties in Kansas. Those counties in the Watch are most favored
to still experience a few severe storms capable of producing hail
up to around ping pong ball size, and/or wind gusts to around 60
MPH.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday.

At least near-critical fire weather conditions Wednesday:
On Wednesday afternoon, at least near-critical fire weather
conditions are likely, primarily within Nebraska counties south of
Interstate 80 and down into north central Kansas. These areas are
most favored to observe both westerly winds gusting at least 20
to 30 MPH, and also relative humidity at least as low as 20 to 25
percent. Should any outright-critical conditions develop for a few
hours, this would mainly favor north central Kansas.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotters are encouraged to report any thunderstorm-related severe
weather tonight, particularly hail at least 1 inch in diameter,
wind gusts around 60 MPH or higher, and any potential damage.

This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of central...east
central...south central and southeast Colorado.

.DAY ONE...Tonight

Periods of light to moderate snow will continue along the central
mountains through the overnight hours, where an additional 1 to 3
inches of new snow will be possible overnight. Strong winds will
produce areas of blowing and drifting snow, leading to hazardous
travel conditions. Snow will come to an end this evening for most of
the high country, except for the Central Mountains, where light to
occasionally moderate snow will linger into Wednesday morning.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday

For the rest of the week and through the weekend, active weather
continues, with precipitation chances remaining elevated, especially
for the mountains.

Potential does exist for higher impact weather Friday night and
into Saturday, particularly for the eastern mountains and down
into the Raton Mesa area, but confidence is low at this time in
heavy and impactful precipitation potential given uncertainty in
eventual storm track and strength.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Weather spotters will not be needed today or tonight.
