A warm holiday weekend is in store.

On the WHOW Morning Show Thursday, Ed Shimon at the National Weather Service in Lincoln told Regional Radio it should be two days of sunny skies with chances of rain rolling in on Sunday.

Shimon reminds when you hear a heat index value, that is for a shaded area. He indicates the heat index in the sun is a plus-10 to 15 value.

Getting through the holiday weekend, Saturday remains warm, and Shimon indicates it cools down on Sunday in time for chances of more pop-up rainstorms in the afternoon.

Shimon encourages keeping cool even though the heat indices are not going to reach the level of a heat advisory. He says lightweight clothing and lots of water are the key.
