Nevada — Bright sun climbs quickly over the Truckee Meadows this morning, cutting through crisp air that still carries a winter bite. Pavement is dry, skies are clear, and the day starts calm. Jackets stay useful early, but sunglasses matter more by afternoon.

According to the National Weather Service in Reno, temperatures rebound sharply today, climbing near 60 under sunny skies. Winds remain light, making conditions feel warmer than recent mornings. Overnight lows dip into the 20s, a reminder that February cold has not fully loosened its grip.

Friday follows a similar pattern. Clouds increase at times, but highs still approach 60. Travel impacts remain low across Reno, Sparks, and along I-580. Calm winds help keep driving conditions steady through Friday night.

Saturday looks like the warmest, steadiest day of the stretch. Sunshine dominates, highs again near 60, and outdoor plans stay solid. After sunset, temperatures fall quickly, setting up another cold night.

Changes arrive late Sunday. Clouds increase through the day, with highs near 62. By Sunday night, rain becomes possible in the valley, while snow levels drop from around 7,700 feet toward 6,900 feet. Travelers heading toward the Sierra should stay alert after dark.

Early next week brings a more active winter pattern. Monday introduces a chance of rain and snow with snow levels lowering near 6,200 feet. By Tuesday, snow chances increase, and daytime highs cool into the 40s. Slick spots could develop during colder mornings, especially where daytime melting refreezes.

Looking ahead, 6–10 day outlooks suggest above-normal temperatures may return later next week, signaling another warming trend after this brief winter reminder.
