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

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight.

A few brief spots of near-critical fire weather conditions are
not out of the question this afternoon, mainly across portions of
south central Nebraska.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday.

Monday afternoon...the combination of gusty west-southwest winds
and low relative humidity values will likely bring dangerous fire
weather conditions to most of south central Nebraska, where a Red
Flag Warning is in effect from noon through 8 PM Monday. Please
refer to the Red Flag Warnings message for additional
information. Elsewhere, lighter winds are expected, which should
keep conditions in the elevated to near-critical range.

Thursday afternoon...near-critical fire weather conditions will
be possible across much of the outlook area.

Friday and Saturday...a strong upper level low pressure system
looks to cross the Central Plains, bringing the potential for
rain, snow, and strong winds. Rain switches over to snow Friday
night into Saturday, with at least some light snow accumulation
possible. Gusty south winds on Friday switch to the northwest
Friday night into Saturday...and for that Friday night and
Saturday time frame, gusts near 40 to 45 MPH are not out of the
question. There remains plenty of uncertainties in the exact
details of this system, so be sure to stay up to date with the
latest forecasts.
