Blair, Nebraska, located just “a country mile north” of Omaha, is gearing up for a week of rapidly changing temperatures and weather conditions. Here’s what residents can expect over the next few days and a broader outlook for the ten-day forecast.
Short-Term Forecast: December 9–11
Monday, December 9
Today kicks off with partly cloudy skies and breezy conditions, bringing a cooler feel to the day. Highs will reach 50°F, though a northwest wind gusting between 20–30 mph will add a chill to the air. The evening sees temperatures dipping to 26°F, marking the start of a colder trend.
Tuesday, December 10
A cloudy and much colder day lies ahead, with highs around 39°F. By evening, a weak system moving through the area may produce flurries or light snow showers, but accumulation is expected to be negligible. Overnight, temperatures will plummet to 16°F as a reinforcing shot of Canadian air sweeps into the region.
Wednesday, December 11
The coldest day of the week arrives with highs only reaching 24°F under mostly sunny skies. Morning lows could dip to 10°F, and a steady breeze will make conditions feel even colder. Residents should prepare for a mid-winter chill.
