Las Vegas is heading into a calm, warm stretch of fall weather after a breezy Saturday, with sunny skies and highs in the mid-70s expected Sunday and Monday. Forecasters are keeping an eye on next weekend, when a system approaching the West Coast could bring showers and wind back to the valley. (Updated Saturday night, Nov. 7, Pacific time.)
The forecast
Saturday night is expected to be clear with a low near 55 degrees and light winds, according to KTNV Channel 13’s latest forecast. Sunday and Monday both look sunny with highs around 75 degrees and light, variable winds.
FOX5’s forecast earlier this week also called for sunny, dry conditions into midweek, with highs of about 76 on Tuesday, 75 on Wednesday and 74 on Thursday. KTNV says temperatures should run two to six degrees above normal through the week, with calm winds.
Rain possible next weekend
A trough approaching the West Coast on Friday, Nov. 13, could bring showers, stronger winds and cooler temperatures to Southern Nevada for the weekend of Nov. 14–15, KTNV reported. The exact track of that system is still uncertain, so the timing and amount of any rain could change over the coming days.
The valley saw hail, flash flooding and severe thunderstorm warnings in late October and early November, so it is worth checking the forecast again later in the week.
What it means for locals and visitors
- Great outdoor days: Sunday through Thursday look ideal for hiking, patios, golf and evening events on the Strip and Fremont Street.
- Light layers at night: Overnight lows in the mid-50s mean a jacket helps after dark.
- Plan ahead for next weekend: If you have outdoor plans or are driving to Mount Charleston or Lee Canyon on Nov. 14–15, watch for updated forecasts. Wet roads in Las Vegas get slick fast after a dry spell, so leave extra following distance if showers arrive.
