High temperatures may set more Las Vegas Valley daily records through the weekend before some limited heat relief finds its way here early early next week.

A Thursday high of 101 is forecast by the National Weather Service with the daily record being 99 set in 2012.

A Friday high of 102 would eclipse the 1947 record of 100 while a projected 101 on Saturday would top the record 99 set in 1980.

The Wednesday high was 101, the 108th day of 2024 that has seen a reading of 100 or more.

An excessive heat warning for Lake Mead National Park, the lower Colorado River Valley and Mohave County is set to expire at 8 p.m. Thursday.

The current weather service forecast calls for the first sub-100 high on Tuesday with a 97 followed by a 94 on Wednesday.

The normal high this time of year is 86, leaving next week’s daily highs at least 10 degrees above normal.

Overnight lows will be in the mid-70s.
