.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 356 AM CDT Fri Jun 6 2025
Upper level analysis reveals an upper level trough over the western
United States. At the surface, high pressure is observed over the
northern Plains. A low pressure system is located over the Texas
Panhandle, with a frontal boundary extending along the leeward side
of the Rockies. Sky conditions are mostly cloudy to overcast across
most of western and north central Nebraska. Widespread, patchy fog
is observed across portions of north central Nebraska this morning,
with visibilities down to one mile or less. The main area of concern
for fog is along and east of Highway 83.
&&
.SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
Issued at 356 AM CDT Fri Jun 6 2025
Widespread patchy fog is expected to last through the early morning
hours across north central Nebraska, with visibility dropping to
below one mile at times. After sunrise, fog is expected to
dissipate.
Skies remain mostly cloudy to overcast throughout the day, with
chances of rain building in later this afternoon and evening. A
shortwave ejects off the Rocky Mountains, however, the main surface
forcing remains to the south of the region. Further south, across
southeast Colorado and western Kansas, this disturbance brings the
threat for severe thunderstorms. However, across western Nebraska,
the environment is not supportive of more organized convection.
While upper levels remain fairly moist throughout the atmospheric
layer, the relative lack of CAPE, shear, and forcing should limit
any severe concerns this afternoon and evening. However, cannot rule
out a few scattered showers and thunderstorms, which may bring some
additional rainfall and gusty winds. Showers may persist overnight
Friday into early Saturday morning, before tracking to the east.
After the rain showers track out of the area Saturday morning, skies
will continue to clear. Temperatures rebound into the 80s across the
region Saturday afternoon. Throughout the day Saturday, a strong
cold front will be tracking across the Dakotas, bringing a threat of
stronger thunderstorms well north of the area. This cold front is
expected to track into the region Saturday evening into early Sunday
morning. As this front is tracking through western and north central
Nebraska, there is a chance for additional scattered showers and
thunderstorms. Currently, these showers and thunderstorms are
expected to arrive late Saturday night into early Sunday morning,
again limiting the severe threat. More notably, as the front tracks
through the region, cooler temperatures and gusty winds out of
the north-northwest are expected.
&&
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Issued at 356 AM CDT Fri Jun 6 2025
Temperatures remain a bit cooler on Sunday, behind the passing cold
front, with highs in the 70s across the region. Winds remain gusty
behind the front, with gusts out the northwest up to 35 miles per
hour. Once the overnight showers and thunderstorms push out of the
area, no additional showers are expected Sunday afternoon.
Upper level ridging begins to settle in across the region early next
week, bringing a dry forecast through mid week. Temperatures remain
mostly around average for this time of year, with very slight
increases in temperature each day Monday through Wednesday. For
Monday, currently expecting highs in the mid to upper 70s, with
highs in the mid 80s by Wednesday. By mid week, the upper level
pattern brings a trough across the western United States, with a
series of shortwaves expected to track through the region. This will
reintroduce the chance of showers and thunderstorms late in the
week, as well as near to slightly above average temperatures.
&&
.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z SATURDAY/...
Issued at 1253 AM CDT Fri Jun 6 2025
Degrading aviation rules are expected through the first 12 hours
of the forecast period.
Low stratus and increasing fog will lead to IFR and LIFR
conditions impacting most terminals. Believe impacts will be
highest across the western zones, generally along and west of
Highway 83, where fog has greatest potential to lead to
visibilities of less than 1SM. Believe the likelihood of this
occurring at either terminal is too low for mention at this
time. By late morning, visibility and CIGs should be on the
increase and VFR conditions should return to both terminals by
Friday afternoon.

.LBF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
