KTNV — Here at Channel 13 Las Vegas, we want to ensure that you start your day on the right foot by keeping you informed about the weather, traffic, the latest news, and more.
Monday daytime highs will be in the low to mid-70s for the majority of us, with lots of sun and some high clouds expected here and there throughout the day.
We're tracking an area of low pressure that will be coming off the coast of California and into our neck of the woods starting Tuesday, which will likely contribute to the return of gustier winds late Tuesday and into Wednesday. Plus, temperatures will start to cool back off below normal, but we don't expect much precipitation in Las Vegas at this point outside of a stray sprinkle or two.
The biggest thing we're keeping our eye on right now is the next area of low pressure and round of unsettled weather rolling across the region overnight Wednesday and into Thursday. Rain chances are very high on Thursday for the Las Vegas Valley, with high temps not likely to exceed 60 degrees.
We have a heads up for drivers. Two new road closures have started in the valley, and they could affect your commute this week.
We want to map out some detours for you to help you get around town a little easier.
Traffic reporter Guy Tannenbaum has what you need to know.
Happening tonight: Public forum with candidates to be next CCSD superintendent
Tonight is the night many of you have been waiting for when it comes to the CCSD superintendent search.
The school district is holding a forum at Rancho High School ot help you learn about the final candidates.
The search has been narrowed to three people: Jesse Welsh, the CEO of Nevada State High School; Ben Shuldiner, superintendent of the Lansing School District in Michigan; and Jhone Ebert, the current state superintendent of public instruction.
The candidates will meet students, parents and staff from across the district, answering questions about their vision for the district.
A portion of the forum will be live-streamed for you to watch from home. On Tuesday, the candidates will have their final interviews with the board of trustees, and on Thursday, the board is expected to make a selection.
We will have a chance to ask the candidates questions. If you have specific questions you want us to ask, we can try to do just that. You can send those to Justin.Hinton@KTNV.com or Joe.Moeller at KTNV.com.
