Always a good filling in for the evening shows over the last several days!

I had several shows that I could say I’m proud of with each day in this business a chance to keep honing in my skills!

@rustywx is back tomorrow night! #NEwx #KLKN

FREEZE WARNING:

The first freeze of the season is expected for most of central and eastern Nebraska early Saturday morning! A Freeze Warning is in place for all of the counties shaded in purple. Temperatures are expected to drop into the middle and upper 20s.

@pixistik1687 Weather apps are notoriously unreliable anyway.

I'm leaning towards a quarter to a half inch of rain for SE Nebraska by Thursday afternoon, but this recent hi-res short range model says a bit more.

After rain chances Wednesday and Thursday, fall kicks it into high gear in Lincoln. Autumn #FTW!

It's going to feel a LOT different on Tuesday vs Monday.

Oh. Hello there, cold front. We've been waiting for you.

The HuskerCast is a warm and windy one!
Temperatures start off in the mid to upper 70s at
kickoff, mid 80s by halftime, then near 90 by the end of
the game. The wind will be out of the south at 10 to 20
mph, gusting to around 30-35 mph. #Huskers #GBR
