LAS VEGAS, Nev. – The desert is drying out again after a brief midweek sprinkle, setting up a stretch of flawless fall weather across southern Nevada. Sunshine will dominate through the weekend as temperatures climb back into the upper 70s and low 80s—perfect for outdoor events, hikes, and late-night Strip strolls.
According to the National Weather Service in Las Vegas, Wednesday’s light showers will clear completely by sunrise, giving way to dry, calm conditions through at least Monday. Winds will shift from the southwest to northwest at 10 to 15 mph by Thursday, occasionally gusty along I-15 and U.S. 95. Highs will rise steadily, from the upper 60s Wednesday to near 80° by Friday, reaching 82° by Sunday.
Drivers should be aware of brief crosswinds on desert stretches of I-15 and I-215, especially in open areas near Sloan and North Las Vegas. Otherwise, visibility will stay excellent, and road conditions remain ideal for travel heading into the weekend.
Weekend planners can expect classic fall comfort—cool mornings near 60°, sunny afternoons, and mild evenings perfect for patio dining or outdoor concerts. Hydration and sun protection are still recommended, as desert UV levels remain strong despite the seasonal change.
Next week, a weak front may cool highs slightly into the low 70s by Tuesday, but no rain or major wind events are expected. It’s a calm, picture-perfect fall stretch in southern Nevada—ideal for everything from pumpkin festivals to Red Rock hikes.
