AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OMAHA/VALLEY NE
240 AM CST MON JAN 3 2011
.DISCUSSION...
MAIN CHALLENGES REMAIN TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE PERIOD AS QUIET
WEATHER CONTINUES FOR OUR AREA...WHILE A NUMBER OF WEAK CLIPPERS
MOVE THROUGH THE NORTHERN PLAINS.
FIRST CLIPPER MOVES THROUGH SOUTH DAKOTA TODAY WITH SOME LIGHT
SNOW WELL TO OUR NORTH...WITH ONLY A WIND SHIFT EXPECTED THIS
AFTERNOON AS TROUGH MOVES THROUGH THE AREA...ALONG WITH A FEW MID
CLOUDS. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ACROSS THE CWFA TONIGHT AND TUESDAY
WHICH SHOULD BRING WINDS BACK TO THE SOUTHWEST...IN ADVANCE OF THE
NEXT CLIPPER THAT MOVES THROUGH THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND UPPER
MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY ON WEDNESDAY. YET ANOTHER CLIPPER FOLLOWS
THE SAME TRACK ON THURSDAY. FORECAST AREA REMAINS ON THE FRINGE OF
EACH ONE...WITH ANY PRECIP POTENTIAL REMAINING JUST NORTH AND
EAST...BUT GIVING US A FEW CLOUDS EACH TIME.
DID NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES FOR THE EXTENDED PERIODS...BUT LATER
SHIFTS MAY HAVE TO LOOK CLOSER AT WHAT APPEARS TO BE INCREASING
CHANCES FOR SOME PRECIPITATION TOWARD THE LATTER HALF OF THE
WEEKEND.
