RENO, Nev. – The air feels crisp across the Truckee Meadows this morning — a light chill against the Sierra backdrop as dawn spreads pale gold over the valley. After a breezy night, Reno wakes to a cool, calm start that sets the tone for a stretch of classic November weather: dry, sunny, and comfortably mild.

According to the National Weather Service in Reno, high pressure remains dominant through the weekend, keeping skies mostly clear and temperatures climbing into the mid-60s by Friday and Saturday. Winds stay light, around 5 to 10 mph, after a few brisk gusts earlier this week. For now, travel conditions along I-80 and Highway 395 look ideal, with clear passes and no weather disruptions expected.

The pattern delivers picture-perfect fall days — bright sunshine, low humidity, and crisp mornings in the upper 30s. Saturday will bring highs near 66°F, and Sunday warms even more toward 69°F, excellent for outdoor plans, local football, or Veterans Day events. Early holiday travelers will find these next few days among the smoothest stretches of the month for regional driving and flying.

By early next week, models suggest subtle changes. A weak Pacific front may approach by Tuesday or Wednesday, introducing some clouds and cooler air. While no rain or snow is expected yet, it could mark the first hint of a broader November cooldown across the Great Basin.

For now, Reno enjoys a steady calm — the kind of dry, golden weather that defines late fall in northern Nevada before winter’s chill finally wins the battle.
