Breezy Thursday forecast as winter refuses to ease up in Las Vegas

Winter is showing no signs of easing.

Chilly conditions will continue in the Las Vegas Valley before a brief weekend warming trend and then colder temperatures early next week, says the National Weather Service.

Thursday will be sunny with a high near 56, but winds of 11-15 mph that could gust to 23 mph will make it feel several degrees cooler.

Winds will diminish Thursday evening to around 5 mph. The Friday morning low will be near 36. Friday is projected to be much calmer with a sunny sky and a high near 56.

Saturday and Sunday will each be a few degrees warmer, according to the forecast. A slight chance of showers with snow in the higher elevations is forecast for early Monday morning before temperatures take another plunge early next week with highs around 50.
