LAS VEGAS — Highs will only hit the low 50s this afternoon as southwest winds gust to 30 mph with a 30% chance for additional rain/snow showers until sunset. The sky clears and we drop through the 40s this evening. Tonight remains windy (gusts 25 mph) so lows in the low 30s will feel like the low 20s! Thursday starts in the mid 30s and finishes in the low 50s as southwest gusts approach 40 mph at midday. There's a 30% chance of rain and snow showers as the day wears on, and mostly cloudy conditions will cover Southern Nevada. Southeast gusts on Friday hit 30 mph, and morning temperatures in the mid 30s won't warm beyond the low 50s in the afternoon as clouds hang tough and the chance for rain and snow showers climbs to 50%. As we see it now, Friday morning could bring a mix of rain and snow to parts of the Las Vegas, so we'll be watching it closely. Saturday looks like a washout, with rain chances at 80% while south winds blow at 15-20 mph and highs are limited to the mid 50s. There might be some snow in the mix if the moisture lingers into Saturday evening and night. Sunday sees a drying trend, but it's still cold (mid 30s early and low 50s later) as southwest breezes blow at 10-20 mph and the sky turns partly cloudy. We'll rise to the mid and upper 50s Monday and Tuesday, but another weather system should bring wind and rain back into our forecast by the middle of next week, along with a reinforcing shot of colder air.
