Las Vegas is waking up to clear skies and temperatures around 55 degrees Wednesday, with a sunny Veterans Day ahead and a high near 77. The warm, easygoing stretch will hold through Friday before the forecast takes a cooler, wetter turn.

According to the National Weather Service, Thursday will be sunny with a high near 75, while Friday stays sunny and reaches about 75 degrees. Winds should remain generally light during the daytime, making the first half of the week favorable for patios, errands and outdoor plans.

Rain Chances Arrive Friday Night

Rain is possible Friday night into Saturday.

Saturday brings a cooler high near 73, with showers possible in the morning. The latest outlook adds a Saturday-morning precipitation chance to the weekend cooldown described in an earlier Hoodline forecast, with the next chance of widespread precipitation and gusty winds Monday into Tuesday.

Another Weather Shift Early Next Week

Sunday looks mostly sunny with a high near 66 after a chilly low around 50 Saturday night. A chance of precipitation arrives Monday night and continues into Tuesday, with Tuesday's high near 63.

For Las Vegas residents heading into the mountains or across the Sierra this weekend, the National Weather Service is also flagging more significant snow potential at higher elevations. In the city, however, the main takeaway is simple: enjoy the sunshine through Friday, then keep a light jacket and some rain gear nearby.
