The next several weeks will be key to slowing the spread of the #COVID19 virus in Nebraska.

We are asking Nebraskans to further limit social interactions. Everyone should work, go home, and shop once a week.

Stay home whenever possible, stay healthy, and stay connected.

[NWS Omaha @NWSOmaha]

Here's a look at what radar may look like this afternoon. While precip will be light, rain may change to snow quickly as temperatures plummet. Dropping temps could cause flash freezing on the wet roads. On top of that, winds could gust up to 40 mph! Yuck!

[NWS Omaha @NWSOmaha]

Good news everyone!

The Tstorms in S Dakota this morn have sped up our anticipated cold front. It's pushing through the Norfolk area now... may arrive in Omaha this afternoon. (Instead of midnight!)

The coolest / driest air behind it will be most noticeable Sunday.
