Las Vegas Valley may see rain over weekend

Updated January 11, 2019 - 10:03 pm

Rain may pay a visit to the Las Vegas Valley this weekend.

Friday’s 60-degree high temperature paired with increasing clouds was the first of two back-to-back storm systems in the valley, according to the National Weather Service.

Saturday, which will see a 20 percent chance for rain, should see a high of 54. That chance for rain will slowly taper off through the day, the weather service said.

The forecast high Sunday is 55, followed by 54 on Monday, 55 on Tuesday, and 56 on Wednesday. Overnight lows until early next week will be in the lower 40s.

The second storm passing through the valley will bring a 20 percent chance for rain Monday evening, which is expected to continue with a 30 percent chance of rain Tuesday and a 40 percent chance Wednesday, the weather service said.

Winds should be light during both storm systems.
