Storms, Rain, and a Cool Down | Lincoln News

Lincoln took a brutal hit from thunderstorms overnight, dousing the city with over five inches of rain per hour in some spots and winds hitting 60 mph—most areas soaked between 1.5 to 3 inches. Tuesday brings relief with cooler temps in the 80s-90s and a slim chance of scattered storms, plus hazy skies from distant wildfires. Western Nebraska braces for strong storms Wednesday morning, bringing gusts and hail as they move southeast. Wednesday stays warm under high pressure, but Thursday’s low-pressure system pulls Gulf moisture in, setting up the best shot for widespread rain Wednesday night through Friday morning—with a flood risk. After the system exits Friday, cooler air arrives, keeping highs in the 80s and lows in the 60s through the weekend.
