Las Vegas Valley skies are clearing Friday morning after a light band of isolated rain and snow before sunrise.

The forecast high Friday is 62 with steady winds of 6 to 13 mph and gusts up to 20 mph.

“The clouds and precipitation will clear out by sunrise and we’ll have a mostly sunny day,” said National Weather Service meteorologist John Adair. “We’ll have some clouds build Saturday into Sunday and be a bit unsettled, but we don’t expect any showers from it.”

The high for Saturday will be near 66 as clouds increase into the evening. Sunday should be around 66, with a high of 73 on Monday.

A warming trend will hold through Thursday or Friday, Adair said, with highs reaching the low 80s Wednesday and Thursday.
