Senior Chief Meteorologist. I point at a big green wall early in the morning. Pet peeves: ATM fees and the phrase 'Is it gonna tornado?'

It's another chilly morning in the 40s and 50s with a little light fog to watch for. We'll again warm rapidly and should reach the lower 80s this afternoon. Low dew points and light wind will make for another quiet but warm day.

Hurricane #Isaias will get a lot of the national attention this week and rightfully so. I'm actually watching to see what happens in the Pacific though. The future hurricane Simon west of Mexico could be the next wave of energy to impact us middle of next week.

FIRST ALERT to some record highs within reach both Friday & Saturday. SSW gusts near and over 30 mph will help us get there with low dew points. We'll see how it trends the next few days.

FIRST ALERT to breezy conditions still expected Saturday. SSW Gusts easily top 30 mph and could touch 40 mph at times in the afternoon. Extra weights for the tents! Then temperatures surge into the upper 80s by the end of the game. I don't expect much humidity though.

Cool temperatures in the 50s this morning will warm into the 80s again this afternoon with low humidity and light wind. Mostly sunny sky will be the story along with that as we dry out a little more.

It looked like such a great fall week in the forecast when we looked at it last week. Unfortunately the dry air can really really warm up fast and it's doing just that. We've had to lean 5-8 degrees warmer than most models given how much we've warmed the last few days.

FIRST ALERT to what looks to be very warm and windy Saturday in Lincoln. Wind gusts in the 30-40 mph range from the SSW will give you fits while tailgating. Impacts to the kicking game are in play too. Temperatures surge well into the 80s during the game. #Huskers

Get ready for more and more warming this afternoon. We'll start in the 50s and surge into the 80s later today. The SSW wind will gust to near 20 mph this morning then the dew points will surge some later this afternoon. It will be a muggy end to the day.

Early look at the forecast for that big game in Lincoln vs Indiana at 11am this Saturday. Warming up quickly with SSW wind gusts 30-35 mph by the afternoon. That likely drags us into the 80s. I could see this trending warmer too.

On this day (Oct 5th) two years ago we tied the record for the hottest recorded temperature in October in Omaha's history. We'll be nearly 20 degrees cooler today. (Oct 3rd, 1938 was the other day we tied btw)
