Nevada — Cool desert air settles into the valley early this morning, sharpening the glow of streetlights and leaving patios quiet. Las Vegas wakes up crisp, but change is already in motion.
Temperatures hover near the upper 30s at daybreak, cold enough for jackets during early commutes. Winds stay light, and skies remain clear across the metro. Dry air keeps roads in good shape, with no weather-related travel issues along I-15 or surface streets.
Sunshine takes control quickly. By afternoon, highs climb into the low 60s, a fast rebound that feels noticeable after the cold start. Outdoor plans improve by midday as the sun warms sidewalks and parking lots.
Tonight stays calm, though clouds begin to increase. Lows dip into the low 40s, keeping the chill manageable. Wednesday turns milder, with afternoon highs reaching the low 60s again. Clouds thin late, and winds remain light across the valley.
Thursday brings the warmest air so far this week. Highs rise into the mid-60s under bright sunshine, pushing Las Vegas closer to a springlike feel. Conditions stay dry, and no rain or wind concerns are expected.
By Friday, temperatures continue climbing. Highs reach the upper 60s, and some neighborhoods flirt with near-70-degree warmth. Nights remain cool, but freezing temperatures stay out of the picture.
Looking ahead, the broader 6–10 day outlook favors below-normal precipitation across Nevada. Temperatures trend near or slightly above average into early February, reinforcing the dry, calm pattern.
For now, winter keeps a light grip on the mornings, then loosens quickly each afternoon. Dress in layers early, plan outdoor time later, and enjoy the quiet stretch. How different did the desert air feel by lunchtime where you were?
