Pleasant Las Vegas weekend could be followed by chance of rain

Two more pleasant days could be followed by a chance of rain in Las Vegas, according to the latest National Weather Service forecast.

Highs of 91 are expected Sunday and Monday with a sunny sky and lights winds.

The overnight lows will be around 70.

“We might see some clouds build late Monday,” said meteorologist Morgan Stessman, adding that the chance of rain Tuesday is around 40 percent, but about an 80 percent chance in Mohave County.

Moisture could develop late Monday, but chances are better on Tuesday.

McCarran International Airport, the official measuring station in the valley, has received 1.5 inches of rain this year, nearly exactly about half of the normal 2.98 inches by early October.
