Omaha starts Friday with clear skies and temperatures in the low 60s, but the afternoon will feel more like midsummer than early October. Sunshine will push the temperature to about 85 degrees, with south winds that could gust to 22 mph.
Another Sunny, Windy Weekend
The latest forecast keeps the heat going Saturday, when Omaha could reach 84 degrees under sunny skies. South winds will run 12 to 16 mph, with gusts as high as 30 to 40 mph, so patio plans should come with a little wind tolerance. The warmer weekend forecast is a notable bump from the mid-80s outlook described in Hoodline’s Thursday forecast.
Warm Sunday Leads Into A Cooler Turn
Sunday remains mostly sunny, though temperatures ease slightly to a high near 84 degrees. Monday will be mostly sunny with a high near 76 after a cold front. Isolated shower or storm chances return Monday evening. Tuesday's high is in the 70s, with rain chances increasing Tuesday night into Wednesday.
Showers Possible Midweek
Rain chances increase Tuesday night into Wednesday, with a few showers possible Wednesday and a high in the 70s. The National Weather Service Omaha/Valley says the cooler pattern should continue into midweek.
No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for the Omaha area in the current forecast. For Friday and Saturday, the main practical concerns are heat, sun exposure and gusty winds, especially for outdoor activities and unsecured decorations.
