It’s time to shake off the winter blues because spring is making an entrance in Omaha and Carter Lake this week! If you’ve been waiting for an excuse to step outside, soak up some sunshine, and enjoy fresh air, this is your moment.
We’re looking at mild afternoons, sunshine-filled skies, and even a day or two that might tempt you to break out the short sleeves. But—because it’s the Midwest—don’t get too comfortable just yet. There’s still some unpredictable weather ahead (yes, possibly even snow).
Let’s break it all down so you can plan your week accordingly!

What This Means for You: Make the Most of the Warm Days!
Monday is the winner! If you’re looking for that perfect spring day, this is it.
Most of the week stays comfortable, but breezy. You might want a light jacket at times.
Friday brings the chance for storms, so don’t forget the umbrella.
And just like that… winter tries to make a comeback on Saturday. (We knew it was too good to be true!)
What’s With the Wind?
If you’ve lived in Nebraska or Iowa long enough, you know spring doesn’t just show up quietly—it usually brings the wind with it.
- Monday and Thursday will be especially breezy, so expect a few stronger gusts in the afternoons.
- If you have outdoor furniture or decorations, keep them secured!
Late-Week Rain & Maybe Even… Snow?!
Thunderstorms could pop up Friday afternoon, bringing rain, lightning, and possibly gusty winds.
Saturday might surprise us with a mix of rain and snow flurries (because, well, Midwest weather).
If you have weekend plans, Friday and Saturday will be the days to watch—so keep checking for updates!
