Primarily between midnight-5 AM CDT on this early Wednesday morning, a persistent round of thunderstorms streamed across much of Dawson County, but especially focused a few miles either side of the Interstate 80 corridor. Although none of these storms reached severe-criteria, hail up to nickel size was reported in Cozad, along with multiple waves of heavy rainfall. By the time storms moved out of Dawson County before sunrise, most of the I-80 corridor through the county had measured at least 1-2 inches of rain, with the NWS cooperative observer in Cozad leading the way with 3.07. For Cozad, this event featured more rain than the past two months combined, and briefly helped ease the expanding extreme drought situation within the area. Although Dawson County experienced the strongest, most concentrated zone of thunderstorms within South Central Nebraska, most areas southwest of a line from Loup City to Hebron also experienced storm activity. This early morning episode of elevated multicell convection was largely tied to a zone of mid level moisture convergence and thrived despite limited large scale forcing with Nebraska positioned along the northern periphery of an expansive mid-upper ridge centered over the Southern Plains. Around the time of the nickel size hail in Cozad, the mesoscale environment featured around 1000 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE but only around 25 knots of 0-6 kilometer vertical wind shear.
