On Thursday, Las Vegas will see clear skies with a chilly morning around 54°F, warming into the upper 60s with a high near 69°F, making for a pleasant late-winter day. Overnight gusty northwest winds affected some areas, but most of the valley will experience only light afternoon breezes.
Afternoon Forecast
Mostly sunny skies are on tap this afternoon with a light east-northeast breeze around 5 mph and highs near 69°F. Humidity stays low, and temperatures should only slip a few degrees after the warmest part of the day. In other words, it is a solid day to be outside before the weather mood swings arrive later in the forecast.
Tonight Into Friday
Cloud cover starts to creep in tonight, with skies turning mostly cloudy and lows near 49°F. A quick warm-up back toward the low 50s is expected overnight. By Friday, readings rebound into the low 70s with north-northwest winds around 7 mph. Light, spotty showers may linger over the higher terrain into Friday, according to the latest National Weather Service discussion.
Weekend And Early Next Week
On Saturday, skies will be mostly sunny with highs near 71°F before the weather turns unsettled. Southerly winds strengthen Sunday into Monday, bringing mostly cloudy skies and a chance of isolated showers late Sunday night, with Monday offering the best chance for valley rain and gusty winds as a system moves through.
That same system is expected to deliver heavier mountain snow above roughly 7,000 feet and gusty southwest winds that could complicate travel at higher elevations. Anyone with plans in the mountains will want to keep a close eye on how this plays out.
