Omaha, NE – Warm, hazy weather will dominate Omaha through the weekend, with highs reaching the upper 80s. Skies today and tomorrow will be clouded by smoke drifting from wildfires out west, impacting air quality and visibility. The heat, coupled with this haze, will create uncomfortable outdoor conditions, so residents are urged to limit strenuous activities and stay hydrated.
According to the National Weather Service, a weakening cold front could bring rain to the region late Friday into Saturday morning, offering slight relief. However, rain chances remain low at around 20-30%, meaning the weekend may still be largely dry. Expect highs near 90 degrees on Thursday and Friday, followed by cooler temperatures in the lower 80s on Saturday and Sunday.
As smoke lingers, sensitive groups should monitor air quality. The best chance for rain will arrive Friday night. Residents should stay updated on weather developments and prepare for fluctuating conditions this weekend.
