Living in the 90°; Taking a run at the century mark

June 14, 2021 5:14 pm

Tack another 90° on the 2021 board.  Today marks the 9th day to reach 90° this year.  We’re three days above the 30-year average year to date.  We’ve got several more days in the 90°s before a cold front passes later this week, bringing cooler, and less humid, air to southeast Nebraska.

Tonight we’ll have mainly clear skies.  With slightly higher dew points, temperatures will not drop in to the 50°s like it has the last two mornings.  Lows will be in the middle to upper 60°s.

Dma Tomorrow High

Temperatures should quickly climb back to the 90°s Tuesday afternoon.  Highs should be similar to Monday, topping out in the middle 90°s.  I am forecasting a high of 95° in Lincoln.

Dew point temperatures will be a little lower Tuesday compared to Monday.  While lower, the heat index will be two or three degrees above the air temperature – putting peak heat indices in the middle to upper 90°s.

Latest Ecmwf 500mb And Temp

A cold front is forecast to pass through the area late Thursday in to Friday morning.  Ahead of the front, temperatures should soar Thursday.  There is potential of Lincoln hitting 100° for the first time in over three years.

There remains a few questions in regards to how warm we get.

  • The cold front will provide compressional warming. This leads one to think we will hit 100°.
  • Low-level moisture will increase ahead of the cold front. Humid air does not warm as easily as dry air. Could this inhibit warming?
  • Cloud cover could develop ahead/along the cold front. Will this limit warming?

The record high for Thursday, June 17 is 101° in Lincoln. The record is a long standing record, being set in 1918. Stay tuned!
