Morrill Hall closed at UNL after heavy rain; timing meant no severe storm warning for Lincoln
The early morning timing of a Tuesday storm that dumped heavy rain and downed tree limbs contributed to the National Weather Service not issuing a severe thunderstorm warning as it swept through Lincoln. Marilyn Hooper, left, leads a group of “Pissed Off Grandmas” in songs of protest outside Bellevue West High School, where Rep. Mike Flood hosted a town hall on Tuesday. After popping his bubblegum, Bryan DeWilde of Omaha tries to return the bubblegum to his mouth without using his hands in the bubble blowing contest during Seward’s Fourth of July celebration Saturday, July 4, 2026, in downtown Seward.
