Reno, NV – Spring makes a bold entrance in northern Nevada this weekend as Reno residents can expect a steady rise in temperatures, starting Sunday and continuing through the week.
According to the National Weather Service, sunny skies will return to the Reno area Sunday with a high near 67°F. Calm conditions are expected, with winds barely reaching 5 mph. This trend continues into Monday and Tuesday, with highs climbing to 73°F and 77°F respectively. Overnight lows will hover in the 40s, keeping conditions mild across the region.
Motorists traveling on I-80 through Reno should expect no weather-related delays through midweek. Dry pavement and clear skies will provide favorable conditions for drivers, but sun glare during morning and late-afternoon hours could reduce visibility. Be cautious during peak commute times.
Wednesday brings a slight chance of showers, especially in higher elevations. Snow levels are expected to fall to around 6800 feet overnight, though impacts to the valley floor remain unlikely. Highs that day will still reach the low 70s, signaling continued spring-like conditions.
By Thursday, another round of light showers could move in. Snow levels may lower to 5300 feet, with daytime highs dipping to 59°F before rebounding to 57°F Friday under mostly sunny skies.
Residents should enjoy the extended stretch of sunshine and warming temperatures while preparing for potential midweek precipitation. Keep updated with local forecasts and road conditions, especially if traveling through the Sierra or along mountain passes.
