Near record highs Friday and Saturday, and windy

It’s going to be very warm the next several days, but cooler air is luring next week. Precipitation chances are small, but showers are possible next week, as well.

Highs on Friday will be in the 80s for the entire state. We may see a few 90s, as well.

Saturday is looking to be just as warm.

I don’t believe we’ll get to a record high Friday of Saturday, but it’s going to be close.

It’s going to be windy, as well. Wind gusts really start to pick up Friday evening.

It will still be windy late Saturday morning… this may be interesting to watch for the Huskers game.

The wind then starts to diminish Sunday afternoon.
