Although the next few days may not feel like it, football-like weather conditions are on the way for the Las Vegas Valley.

The forecast high for Friday is 103 degrees with 104 predicted for Saturday.

There is a 10% chance of rain Friday afternoon when a shower from the mountains could make its way into the valley, said meteorologist Alex Boothe of the National Weather Service.

Winds will pickup Saturday afternoon 20 to 25 mph with gusts up to 36 mph possible.

On Sunday, the high should reach 97 with an overnight low of 75.

“It may feel more like fall by Wednesday when the forecast high is about 92,” Boothe said.
