Omaha, Nebraska – A damp, gray sky hangs over the Missouri River valley this morning, where cool air and patchy drizzle mark the start of November. For residents in Omaha and Council Bluffs, today brings a short brush with light rain before a welcome stretch of sunshine and mild fall air settles in through early next week.
According to the National Weather Service in Omaha/Valley, a weak disturbance passing through the region may spark a few sprinkles through midday. Temperatures will struggle to reach the upper 40s, while a northwest breeze near 10 mph keeps conditions feeling brisk. Any precipitation will remain brief and light, tapering by mid-afternoon.
By Sunday, skies clear completely, setting up a calmer day across eastern Nebraska and western Iowa. Highs rebound into the upper 50s with sunshine dominating—ideal for post-Halloween cleanup or early holiday decorating. Winds increase slightly, gusting up to 20 mph across open fields, but travel along I-80, I-29, and U.S. 75 will remain smooth and dry.
Monday continues the warming trend, reaching near 61 degrees under full sun. Lows stay above freezing, a sign that winter’s chill hasn’t fully taken hold yet. Still, early November can turn quickly—forecasters note cooler air building over the northern Plains that could nudge south late next week.
For now, the Omaha metro enjoys a crisp but comfortable start to November—one that feels more like late fall than the winter ahead.
