Las Vegas is bracing for a shift in weather, with gusty winds set to replace the recent calm and warmth. According to the National Weather Service, temperatures will cool down, and winds will pick up by Monday and Tuesday, signaling the arrival of a low-pressure system.

After a period of mild warmth, temperatures will drop, and winds will range from 20 to 30 mph, with gusts up to 45 mph along the Colorado River Valley. A Wind Advisory will be in effect from late Monday morning through Tuesday afternoon, particularly affecting high-profile vehicles on east-west roads. Temperatures are expected to decrease by 8 to 10 degrees by Tuesday. Wednesday will bring a brief break in the weather, but temperatures will remain steady. A new weather system will approach, and there is a 20-30% chance of precipitation in the southern Sierra by Saturday.

For aviation, winds will affect flight conditions starting Monday, with light winds expected today. Pilots should be aware of high clouds that will thicken later in the day.

Spotters are encouraged to report any significant weather changes to ensure public safety.
