By early Saturday, February 7 at 5:35 a.m. PST, the Las Vegas Valley was already off to a calm start, with clear skies and temperatures hovering around 55°F. Sunshine is set to take over the day, nudging afternoon highs into the low-to-mid 70s and delivering a warm, dry weekend that is tailor-made for errands, patio brunches, and any excuse to stay outside. Light breezes and solid visibility should keep things pleasant across the valley.
Sunny, Warm Weekend
Today stays firmly in the “perfect winter in the desert” category, with sunny skies and a high near 74°F. Tonight cools to around 49°F, so evening plans might call for a light layer. Sunday, February 8 keeps the streak alive with a similar setup, bringing a high near 75°F and light northeast winds to round out the weekend.
Midweek Change: Cooler With Spotty Showers
The pattern starts to shift as a shortwave moves inland early next week. Clouds increase Monday, February 9, setting the stage for cooler conditions Tuesday and Wednesday. Isolated rain showers are possible after late afternoon on Tuesday, February 10, with higher terrain favored for any activity while valley rain should be light or brief. By Wednesday, February 11, highs slide into the upper 60s before temperatures rebound later in the week.
Travel, Aviation And Watches
According to NWS Las Vegas, VFR conditions and light winds are expected at Harry Reid and regional airports through the weekend, and there are no watches, warnings, or advisories currently in effect. That setup should keep most flights on time and outdoor events running smoothly, though organizers with activities planned for Tuesday, February 10 may want to keep an eye on those increasing clouds.
Bottom Line
Soak up the sunshine this weekend, with lows in the upper 40s to around 51°F and highs in the low-to-mid 70s, and keep a light jacket handy for the cooler evenings. If you are out and about on Tuesday, February 10, it will not hurt to stash a slim umbrella in case one of those brief, isolated showers finds you.
