.DISCUSSION...
Fire weather concerns are expected to remain low this week. A
winter weather system brought snowfall to most of the region. A
second round of snow showers are expected across southwest
Nebraska tonight into Monday morning, as well. This recent
moisture, as well as cooler temperatures will help keep afternoon
humidity values above 35 to 40 percent through the week. Wind
gusts are expected to remain under 25 mph for the next few days,
as well.
