Tuesday will chill to a high near 60, just about normal, before a cold front is projected to move into the valley Tuesday night with winds gusting to around 40 mph.
Gusty winds will continue on Wednesday with a high near 52.
The Thursday morning low at Harry Reid International Airport is currently projected to be 33.
“That means some areas like Nellis, Henderson and in the southwest will likely be below freezing in the upper 20s,” said weather service meteorologist Barry Pierce.
After 24 hours or so of blustery conditions, temperatures are forecast to warm with weekend highs back in the lower 60s.
No precipitation is expected with the cold front.
