If you've got outdoor plans for the Labor Day weekend, you'll want to get those in early in the weekend.

Chris Miller with the National Weather Service in Lincoln tells Regional Radio News the holiday weekend should be very nice to start the weekend but by Sunday afternoon, clouds will increase bringing more chances of rain.

Over the next few weeks, look for temperatures to cool down a little bit. Daytime temperatures will hang out in the 70s and even lows could dip to the 40s, according to Miller.

While things are anticipated to cool down, Miller says September will continue to be dry, coming off an August that in some places was two inches below normal precipitation levels.
