It’s finally raining in Omaha! It wasn’t a lot, but just enough to get the ground wet.

With a better chance for strong storms and heavy downpours for Tuesday morning’s commute KMTV 3 News Now

SEVERE THERAT MONDAY & TUESDAY: Isolated storms start to pop up after the p.m. commute, with the biggest threat being large hail, especially in eastern Nebraska... but strong wind and a tornado can't be ruled out. As more storms pop up overnight, they should weaken. (1/2)

Today is the first day of March, but it'll feel more like an April day...Maybe an early 'April-fools?'

Not as windy around Omaha today, but we're still dealing with the grassland fire risk, especially Sunday KMTV 3 News Now

Windy today with gusts up to 45mph in Nebraska and Iowa. Red flag warnings were issued for the grassland fire risk...Probably dealing with that through Sunday...

Also, skies in Omaha may look hazy due to smoke from ongoing Texas wildfires

Omaha hit 68 degrees for the second day in a row! But. It's February.

It should be much colder than this. So far, we are running about 11 degrees above normal, and projected to be a top 5 warmest February on record for OMA KMTV 3 News Now
