Warm and sunny this week in Las Vegas

Tuesday will be another “sunny, beautiful day” and temperatures are expected to rise before the weekend, National Weather Service meteorologist Justin Pullin said.

Tuesday will have sunny skies, a high of 85 degrees and a low of 65, according to the weather service.

Wednesday has a forecasted high of 90 degrees, which would be the first 90-degree day of the year.

“The first 90-degree day typically falls on today’s date, so temperatures are right around normal,” Pullin said.

Thursday also should have a high of 90 degrees and a low in the mid- to upper 60s before things cool down for the weekend, according to the weather service.

“There will possibly be a weather disturbance knocking on our door Friday,” Pullin said.

Friday will be a bit cooler with an 86-degree high, increased cloud coverage and breezy conditions. Although there is no rain in the forecast for this weekend, there is still a lot of uncertainty with this weather system, according to the weather service.

Saturday’s high will drop to about 76 degrees making for a “pretty nice weekend,” Pullin said.
