KTNV — Here at Channel 13 Las Vegas, we want to make sure you start your day off on the right foot, informed about weather, traffic, the latest news and more.

Christmas Eve morning and early afternoon will be fairly quiet, with partly cloudy skies. Wind gusts will start to pick up around the afternoon leading into the evening time. That's really when we anticipate the bulk of this system arriving in our neck of the woods.

We have a 50% chance of rain showers in Las Vegas, with measurable precipitation at the airport maybe around a tenth of an inch, if that. Whatever precipitation we get will be much needed after this prolonged near-record dry spell.

Looks like you're in for a smooth ride this morning. As of 5:30 a.m., no heavy traffic to worry about.

All major routes are clear and moving well, so you can expect your drive to be stress-free.
