The U.S. Air Force has moved several RC-135S large reconnaissance aircraft, which flies Joint Chiefs of Staff-directed missions of national priority to collect optical and electronic data on ballistic targets, to Travis Air Force Base, California in preparation for stormy weather in Nebraska.

As the News Channel Nebraska reported, Strong to severe storms could materialize on Sunday afternoon and evening along a cold front moving through the area. The timing of the front remains somewhat uncertain, but it appears that the best potential for severe storms will be primarily in southeast Nebraska, north central Kansas, and southwest Iowa.
