Las Vegas, NV – A persistent low-pressure system will bring a renewed chance of showers and thunderstorms to southern Clark County and Mohave County this evening, according to the National Weather Service in Las Vegas. Storm chances increase late this afternoon through midnight, with the highest probabilities across southern Mohave County.
According to the National Weather Service, the Las Vegas Valley carries a 20–30% chance of thunderstorms, while northwest Arizona—including Kingman and surrounding communities—holds a 20–40% chance, with the greater likelihood farther south. Areas of Inyo and San Bernardino Counties see lower probabilities between 5–10%.
Potential hazards include gusty winds up to 30 mph, localized heavy rainfall, and cloud-to-ground lightning, which may prompt brief travel slowdowns or isolated power interruptions. While widespread severe weather is not expected, any isolated storm that develops could produce sudden downpours and dangerous lightning strikes.
Storm chances diminish after midnight as the disturbance exits the region, but lingering showers may remain across parts of Mohave County into early Sunday morning.
Residents and visitors are urged to follow standard thunderstorm safety guidance: “When thunder roars, go indoors.” Those with evening outdoor plans in the Vegas Valley or near Lake Mead should stay alert to rapidly changing conditions.
