Las Vegans should brace for a cold front later this week bringing gusty winds, potential rain showers, and a notable drop in temperatures. Light precipitation may appear Wednesday morning, with more significant weather changes expected by Wednesday night and Thursday as colder air moves in from the southwest, according to the National Weather Service.
The National Weather Service warns that "widespread strong winds with gusts of 45 - 55 mph will accompany the front," prompting a broad wind advisory across the region. Cooler temperatures are expected by Friday, potentially the coldest nights of the season, before conditions gradually dry out and warm over the weekend.
The aviation forecast for Harry Reid calls for "light winds under 8KT" today. A cold front is expected by Thursday morning, bringing "gusty, with a 30% chance of gusts over 35 knots" and showers that may affect visibility and flying conditions. Larger storms are developing northwest of the region. The National Weather Service stated that "Spotters are encouraged to report any significant weather or impacts according to standard operating procedures."
