Emily’s 6 First Alert Forecast: A break from the wind on the way

OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) - After several gusty days we are looking ahead to a break from the wind... Tuesday will be breezy. Gusts pick up to near 30mph for the Metro by the early afternoon. The NW wind won’t be as strong as in past days so we’ll begin to warm up more underneath sunny skies. Highs reach for the mid 60s.

By Wednesday we make the jump tot he 70s and keep the warm up going to 80 on Thursday. This is all thanks to a ridge of high pressure pulling in the warmth. This warmth sticks around thanks to a “blocking pattern” that keeps our ridge in place.

The forecast will become a bit unsettled beginning Thursday evening. Daily chances for spotty showers and storms stick around through the weekend.
