In the afternoon, avoid further rise in temperature. We'll hit 93 today, but it will still take a few hours tomorrow before we see these Heat Index values reach triple digits. We're turning the heat up a little bit. A heat advisory is in effect for the Genoa City Omaha Metro station at the Lincoln-Beatrice Falls station. Counties in purple start at noon tomorrow. It lasts until 8:00pm on Monday evening. Expect the temperature to feel like 110 degrees at times. On top of that, you'll see counties under an Orange Heat Warning going into effect tomorrow. Again, here's the heat index forecast for Sunday. Temperatures weren't too bad early after sunrise, but by 10:00 they were approaching 90 degrees, and then they were in the triple digits for much of the afternoon and evening, peaking around 4 or 5:00 , the temperature is around 107-108 degrees. It feels like temperature. So whatever your plans for any outdoor activities tomorrow afternoon or evening, be sure to take precautions. Stay hydrated, take frequent breaks indoors and use air conditioning if you can. This is a view of downtown Omaha, where it's almost 1030 degrees. Lincoln 84 feels like 90, Norfolk 79 82 current heat index because these dew points are so bad. It's the 1970s now and it will be the same tomorrow. And Monday. The more moisture in the air, the higher the humidity, which can cause heat indexes to reach triple digits. But this afternoon, several scattered showers appeared over the subway, causing the temperature to rise further. That batch of showers and clouds has moved eastward. So we're going out now. Ridge is under construction. Therefore, most of the storm activity is concentrated to the north. One couple was near the South Dakota-North Dakota border and Minnesota, and another couple was diving toward the Chicago area. So most should stay in the north. We will be monitoring this event closely throughout the night. It should remain in the north. Some of the outflows it triggered could stir up more clouds. There will be scattered showers again tomorrow. The model is hinting at tomorrow morning. Dry conditions to start, but bring in midday clouds again. A few more scattered showers. The atmosphere is quite harmonious today. That's why we haven't seen any of these showers really grow, so the same thing could be seen. If this happens. When we go through the heating peak, temperatures will likely be closer to the upper 90s rather than the upper 90s. But if we still have sunshine in the early afternoon, temperatures will soar, possibly reaching the upper 90s. Again, pushing those heat index values up to 110 degrees again, with a high of 98 tomorrow and 99 on Monday, coming up. So, this could lead to some scattered severe storms Monday night into Monday night. Then sweet relief is coming. The weather is great. Temperatures will be comfortable in mid-July, mid-to-late next week. We just have to get through the next few days of extreme heat before our temperatures get back below average. But again, be smart and be safe. if you have
