Warm weather, sunny skies expected this week in valley

Warm weather and sunny skies are expected this week in the Las Vegas Valley until a chance of weekend showers.

The National Weather Service said Sunday’s clear skies will be paired with an 82-degree high.

There will be scant variation in the forecast highs Monday through Thursday, the weather service said, which are expected to linger near 85 degrees.

“There shouldn’t be too much going on except nice weather until Friday,” meteorologist John Salmen said.

Temperatures will “come down pretty good” this weekend, Salmen said, when a cold front bringing a 20 percent chance of rain moves into the valley Friday. Windiness is also forecast for the weekend, particularly Friday, when winds are expected between 20 and 30 mph, with potential gusts of 40 mph.

Friday’s high of 79 degrees will be followed by a 75-degree high on Saturday.
