We've tracking the leftovers from yesterday's intense severe threat across the plains. The good news is that most of this activity is expected to remain under severe limits, but we are keeping a close eye on one particular storm. The National Weather Service has issued a Special Weather Statement for this cell as it moves into southwest Carroll County. As it tracks to the northeast, it could bring wind gusts up to 40 mph and pockets of small-sized hail.
We're not done yet unfortunately as another chance for strong to severe storms arrives tonight into Tuesday morning. Once this morning's activity clears out, the rest of Monday actually looks dry and warm with highs peaking in the low 80s.
The Storm Prediction Center has the highest risk for severe weather well to our south and west over areas in Kansas, Nebraska, and Missouri. As those storms organize and move east, we'll likely see a similar setup to last night, where storms gradually weaken on approach but still holding together enough to track through after midnight, with a least a chance for a few t-storms into Tuesday's morning commute. Gusty winds and small-sized hail will be the primary concern with any severe thunderstorm but again, instability or storm fuel remains quite as these storms move in from the west.
Cooling Back Down:
Temperature-wise, this incoming cold front will be strong, bringing a noticeable shift in our temperatures as we approach the middle of the work week. After enjoying afternoon highs in the low 80s, we'll take a step back into the 70s tomorrow, followed by a much cooler feel by midweek with highs settling in the 60s for Wednesday. It's a sharp reminder that even as we get a taste of summer warmth, spring can still deliver some quick and noticeable cool-downs!
