Rainfall finally returned to western Nebraska on September 5th.  A large swath of rain occurred behind a cold front, and a broad upper trough of low pressure will spin off enough perturbations to produce better chances for rainfall into early this weekend. The last time measurable rain occurred in North Platte was on August 13th, with 1.08 inches reported.  In Imperial the last occurrence of measurable rain was on the 18th of August with just one hundredth of an inch recorded.  Parts of north central Nebraska have received more recent rainfalls, like the thirty two hundreths (0.32) of an an inch in Broken Bow on September 2nd, and the two hundredths (0.02) of an inch at Valentine on September 2nd.
