Las Vegas, Nev. – Sunshine and rising temperatures will define the weekend in Las Vegas, with highs climbing from the lower 90s Saturday into the mid-to-upper 90s by early next week. The National Weather Service says the city will push near 98 degrees by Wednesday, extending an already hot September stretch.
According to forecasters, overnight lows will dip into the low 70s, offering only slight relief from the daytime heat. Clear skies and dry air will keep humidity low, but the persistent sun will raise risks for heat-related illnesses, especially for those spending time outdoors or working in construction.
By Sunday, highs will hit 94, followed by 96 Monday and near 97 Tuesday. Winds will remain light, shifting between northwest and southeast, leaving little breeze to offset the heat. Officials urge residents to stay hydrated, limit outdoor activity in the afternoon, and check on elderly neighbors and pets.
The hot pattern looks to continue into Thursday, when highs remain locked in the upper 90s. No rain is in the forecast, keeping conditions dry across Clark County and southern Nevada.
