cheekygeek Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Models coming into agreement, according to the latest Omaha NWS Forecast Discussion. Looks like the scenario I mentioned this morning is the likely one. Quote Just about all model suites have been depicting a cluster of severe storms to develop along the KS/NE border region in central NE by 22-24z, as an upper level wave moves out of the Rockies. These storms should continue to move east northeast along the surface trough and be into our western border southeast NE counties by 00-01z, then move up the I-80 corridor through the evening. Effective shear of 35-45 knots combined with strong instability should be sufficient for a few storms to become severe with hail 1-2", and 60+ mph winds. Timing these into the Lincoln area perhaps 8-9pm, and Omaha 9-10pm as first guess. The stalled frontal boundary is in the area, thus SPC has added a 2% probability of a tornado along I-80. Unfortunately, models continue to suggest that at least a couple more rounds of stronger storms are possible tonight, with the possibility of 1-2" of rain, and likely possibly more. While we can probably take that much rain, will have to take a hard look if we need to consider the possibility of a flash flood watch with the afternoon update. This animation goes from 8 PM to 11 PM tonight. If correct, the precip would be hitting Lincoln in the 9 PM hour. https://imgur.com/a/SdAkNuY Looks like HEAVY rain to me. Conditions are BARELY into the Supercell Composite though (for Lincoln... more so to southeast of Lincoln) so I think hail is unlikely and hopefully that also means not a lot of cloud to ground lightning. I may be wishcasting instead of forecasting now... Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 This potentially sucks balls. We need to get a good lead before the rain and delays. 1 Quote Link to comment

I for one would still be awake at 1am so I kinda hope they’d still play then. 1 Quote Link to comment
