This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of southwest
Iowa...west central Iowa...east central Nebraska...northeast
Nebraska and southeast Nebraska.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight

Expect heat indices to reach 95 to 100 degrees this afternoon.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday

The combination of temperatures in the lower to mid 90s and
dewpoints in the upper 60s to lower 70s will yield heat index
values of 100 to 102 on Wednesday afternoon into early evening.
From Wednesday evening into Wednesday night, a complex of
thunderstorms is expected to spread southeast across the area.
Severe weather is possible especially to the northwest of a line
from Lincoln to Omaha to Onawa, Iowa. Damaging winds will be the
primary hazard, though large hail and locally heavy rainfall are
also possible.

Another round of severe storms is possible on Thursday afternoon
and evening over portions of eastern Nebraska and southwest Iowa.
Timing, location, and specific hazards all remain uncertain at
this point in time.

Severe weather appears possible on Saturday as well.

Beyond Wednesday, heat index values will average 95 to 100 just
about every afternoon.
