The moment I realized I had to walk to the desk, after tossing and staring at the wrong camera.

Rain Thursday, maybe a couple storms mixed in Friday. That could cause some small delays for state track and the Huskers first B1G baseball tourney game.

No severe weather?! What do I even talk about today?!

The Wolves wouldn’t have done this to me.

Wemby from the logo. I felt that shoot through my heart.

DAMMIT CHET! I HAVE DONE 8 HOURS OF SEVERE COVERAGE THE LAST TWO DAYS, AND I WANT TO GO HOME!

First Tornado WATCH of the day until 8pm, and it’s a PDS (particularly dangerous situation) watch. Cities like Beatrice, Auburn, and Falls City need to be paying close attention Monday afternoon. Long-lived, and potentially strong, tornadoes are possible.

This is for extreme southeast Nebraska, but a Tornado Watch is coming…for storms that could produce *softball* size hail. Again, this is well south of Omaha, but 👀

Blue = stalled front Red = warm front/outflow Yellow = Omaha Along and east of the stalled front could get more storms with big hail, strong winds, and tornadoes after 3-4pm Monday. Tornado potential is highest near the warm front. Both fronts will drift north a little.

Radar update before 6pm NWS is talking about “wind-driven hail” with that storm over Fullerton. That will move north of the Platte River. Omaha’s storms are developing near Hebron and Geneva. The would be in the metro after 7:30pm.

Severe storms are possible in Omaha tonight, after 7pm. Big hail, tornadoes, strong winds are all possible. I would plan on being home by 7 if you can.

Tornado WATCH now expanded, and it does include the Omaha metro until 11:00 PM Sunday. You still have a few hours to enjoy the last of the weekend. If you are west of Omaha, I would stay you should be inside by 5-6 PM. In the Omaha metro, be home by 7-8 PM.

Tornado WATCH in effect until 10 PM Sunday evening, north of the Omaha metro. Storms could produce tornadoes, wind gusts up to 85 mph and hail up to baseball size.

When I hear “Reed Timmer is in town” I have two reactions: 1. Ugh, people are going to be unnecessarily hyped up and expecting the most extreme conditions 2. He’s very good at keeping tornadoes away

Man, all this rain is great to see. The widespread heavy rain will help to lower severe potential. We will still get some warnings for hail and wind, but on the lower side of the severe scale.

T-Storm Warning in the west metro until 10:15pm for 1” hail

Here’s my Saturday evening storm update for Omaha.

We get it CBS. There are a lot of people in contention.

My superpower is picking the slowest checkout line at Costco, no matter what.

*ends severe coverage, checks the Wolves score* Welp. That was a fun season.

Ok Omaha, our turn for storms as you’re going to bed. This line took its sweet, sweet time, but it’s finally firing up. Some hail, strong winds, and heavy rain are possible.

T-Storm Watch in effect until 1:00 AM. Omaha’s best chances for storms are through about 10:00pm.

80% chance of a T-Storm WATCH Friday evening across most of eastern Nebraska and western Iowa. Big hail and strong winds are the main impacts. Low tornado potential. 6-10pm is the window for storms.

My mind works in stupid ways lol

Ok Omaha, day 1 of a stormy stretch. Friday also features a shot at the record high of 94°! Storms develop after 6pm, some with hail and strong winds. If you’re going to be outside, have a way to get weather info.

Well good morning to you too Todd.

Omaha’s forecast for the next four days: Record highs Friday, rounds of severe storms Must be May.

Making a video for kids.

When the 20% chance of a morning downpour hits exactly when I take the dog out…

A coworker asked me about the game earlier today. I told him the Wild would lose spectacularly. I assumed it would be like 7-1. This fits the bill.

One of the places I can do weather in the studio is called “9 mon.” When talking to the producer about where I want to be, I told him, “Let’s go Herman Cain for the first three hits: 9, 9, 9” Blank stare. His birth year starts with a 2, so it tracks.

Hi, I’m someone who predicts highs and lows for a salary. My entire income is based on that. If you are betting on weather, you have a problem.

That’s how we led into the Wolves game tonight in Omaha. Me saying “shooty hoops”

Sprinkles and gusty winds around Omaha Tuesday afternoon. Winds calm down tonight and stay light on Wednesday. Tomorrow will be downright perfect. The weekend…not so much, but rain is good!

Goal: Start a new job in Omaha, and live with my in-laws for a month while finding a house. Deal with the 40 minute commute. Reality: Husband loses his job, interest rates keep going up. Maybe we move out in the fall? Driving 40 minutes is worth free housing.

Huh. Just realizing the hantavirus people in Omaha are like 8 blocks away. …and I’m not concerned at all because UNMC is the best at this in the world.

Today in hidden folder messages… Thought I made an unknowing Tom Waits reference for a moment.

Today’s Connections is designed to bait Radiohead fans, and I’m not amused.

On my video about a dust devil. Trust: I’m cool collecting a paycheck and never having to cut into programming to talk about severe weather. I don’t do it for my health. It’s for yours.

Kick save and a beauty from Dosunmu!

WEDGE DUST DEVIL IN RALSTON…or something like that. Went across two fields, even spun up a satellite devil at the end.

My first time seeing it from this side. It actually is omg 😂

Still a chance to see some very light showers around Omaha late Saturday afternoon. As expected, the more widespread rain and a couple downpours are south.

Come on Eileen

Upping this again. Thank you to everyone who has given us leads. They did turn into a couple interviews, but nothing beyond that. Our house closed at 9:30 this morning, and he loses his job this afternoon.

I see the drought conditions getting worse, and the modest rain chances in the next week, and know I’ll be talking about fire weather a lot.

Two school talks down today, now time to go to work!

Thank you @randballsstu.bsky.social for giving me the sanity break when opening my inbox.

After one more morning in the 30s, the 70s are back Thursday, and they’re here to stay! Now if we could just get some rain…
