Snow in Las Vegas? Why Summerlin gets those random, icy winters

Southern Nevadans and visitors will get a brief break from weekend record-setting heat to start the work week. The same can’t be said about the wind.

The expected high for Monday is 99, while west-southwest winds of 16-25 mph will gust up to 33 mph, according to the latest National Weather Service forecast.

West-northwest winds will gust to 22 mph Monday night before a Tuesday morning low temperature near 73.

The Tuesday high should be around 97 before triple-digit highs return Wednesday into the weekend. Winds are forecast to be lighter.

Despite the early June heat, the weather service is noting the upcoming monsoon season with a Monsoon Awareness Week.

Monsoons have occurred with less regularity in the Las Vegas region over the past several summers, but can generate flash flooding with potentially deadly consequences. The biggest risk for monsoons runs from June 15 to Sept. 30.
