BILL RANDBY. WITH THE FORECAST YOU TRUST FROM OMAHA’S WEATHER LEADER RANDBY FACTOR, TIME FOR WEDNESDAY. I SAY SIX GOING TO BE OKAY FOR BEING AND WORKING OUTSIDE. PRETTY NICE IN THE MORNING, BUT THEN QUITE HOT IN THE AFTERNOON. TODAY WE FOLLOWED THAT. IT WAS BEAUTIFUL THIS MORNING, 53 DEGREES FOR THE LOW CLEAR SKIES. BUT THEN WE TOPPED OUT AT 89 THIS AFTERNOON, WHICH IS ABOVE THE AVERAGE HIGH OF 83 AND NO PRECIPITATION. WE NEED SOME. LOOK AT THAT. WE ARE 3.5IN BELOW AVERAGE MOISTURE YEAR TO DATE, AND POLLEN LEVELS ARE NOT TOO BAD. WE’RE GETTING MORE GRASS POLLEN, WHICH IS TYPICAL OF JUNE WEED POLLEN. WE TYPICALLY SEE THAT AS WE GET INTO JULY AND AUGUST. THERE IT IS, THE STRAWBERRY MOON. IT LOOKS LIKE A GIANT STRAWBERRY. SORT OF. THAT’S OUR CAMERA AT 27TH. THE DOUGLAS ZOOMED IN AND THIS IS RISING IN THE SOUTHEAST SKY. NOW, OF COURSE, FULL MOON ALWAYS RISES. AT THE TIME THE SUN SETS. JUST THE OPTICS OF HOW THAT WILL WORK. 79 DEGREES WITH CLEAR SKIES. 80 IN FREMONT. 73 ATLANTIC, 72 IN RED OAK BREEZE. NOW FROM THE SOUTH, AT AROUND 5 TO 10MPH. EARLIER TODAY WAS SOUTHWEST AROUND 15MPH. AND IT WILL BE STRONGER FROM THE SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST TOMORROW. BUT WE’RE QUIET ON DUAL POLL SUPER DOPPLER SEVEN RADAR BECAUSE THERE ARE NO CLOUDS IN NEBRASKA OR IOWA. A COUPLE OF CLOUDS HERE IN SOUTHERN MINNESOTA AND THE COUNTRY AS A WHOLE, NOT PARTICULARLY STORMY. THERE IS A SEVERE WEATHER WATCH FOR SOUTHWEST TEXAS. A FEW SHOWERS AND STORMS ALONG THE GULF, AND THEN INTO THE NEW ENGLAND AREA. AND THEN WE’RE WATCHING THIS LITTLE DISTURBANCE COMING THROUGH THE ROCKIES. THAT’S THE ONE THAT MAYBE WILL GIVE US A CHANCE OF A SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM THE NEXT FEW DAYS, ALTHOUGH BETTER CHANCE FARTHER NORTH OF HERE. THERE YOU GO. CLEAR SKIES TONIGHT, SUNSHINE FOR THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY. TEMPERATURES RISING INTO THE LOW TO MID 90S IN THE AFTERNOON. THERE. THE CLEAR SKIES ON STORM PREDICTOR. THERE’S A LITTLE FRONT STALLED OFF TO THE NORTH OF US. AND AS WARM FRONT AS WARMER AIR TRIES TO SURGE NORTHWARD ALONG THE FRONT. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS COULD POP UP LATE DAY AND THEN TRACK EASTWARD, AND THE INDICATION IS THAT WILL ALLOW THE FRONT TO STAY NORTH OF US. AND THEN MOISTURE WILL START TO GET IN HERE ON THURSDAY. SO PERHAPS A SPOTTY SHOWER, BUT STILL THE BETTER CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THAT FRONT. TONIGHT THE LOW 64 MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES WITH THE STRAWBERRY MOON ALREADY RISING IN THE SOUTHEAST SKY. SUNSHINE, SUNSHINE. SUNSHINE 87 BY NOON. SO REALLY WARMING UP FAST AND THEN BREEZY AND HOT IN THE AFTERNOON WITH A HIGH OF 94. 89 FOR THE HIGH ON THURSDAY, BUT A LITTLE MORE HUMID THERE. SO IT WILL PROBABLY FEEL AS WARMER, WARMER AND THEN MAYBE A SPOTTY SHOWER OR THUNDERSHOWER TO TRACK AS WE OPEN THE COLLEGE WORLD SERIES ON FRIDAY. WARM AND HUMID THIS WEEKEND TOO. CAN’T WAIT FOR THAT WARM, HUMID SUMMER WEATHER. WELL, WE’RE DUE, I KNOW.
