Weekend First Alert- Widespread rain and cooler air for Las Vegas

We have one more mild and dry day on Thursday before the big weather changes this weekend. First Alert Weather Days return Friday through Tuesday next week with rain in the forecast and the coldest air of the season so far.

  • Wednesday Evening: Staying dry with some breaks in the clouds possible after 9 p.m. A strong geomagnetic storm is ongoing, bringing the chance to see the Northern Lights in Southern Nevada. The best chance to view them will be getting away from the city lights and viewing with a long exposure camera.
  • Thursday: Weather changes begin. The breeze picks up during the afternoon, with forecast gusts in the 20–30 mph range. The forecast high is 79° before colder air arrives this weekend. A few showers may develop late, especially west of the valley and into the Pahrump area.
  • Friday (First Alert): A colder storm moves into Southern Nevada. Scattered showers develop, and highs fall back into the low 70s.
  • Saturday (First Alert-Wettest Day): As the storm approaches Southern Nevada, widespread soaking rain is forecast to pick up during the afternoon and evening. High temperatures fall back into the mid-60s.
  • Sunday (First Alert): Scattered showers continue with the chance of an isolated thunderstorm around Southern Nevada. We keep it cool and breezy with a forecast high of 62° in Las Vegas.
  • Monday and Tuesday (First Alert): The colder pattern is expected to stick around through next week, with shower chances lingering into Monday and Tuesday. This second storm will be colder, bringing temperatures down into the upper 50s on Tuesday with better snow chances in the mountains.
