Sunny, mild weather expected this weekend in the Las Vegas Valley

Sunny, mild weather is forecast for this weekend, and high temperatures are expected to hover in the upper 70s by next week.

Saturday saw a high of 74, only one degree above the normal high for this time of year, National Weather Service meteorologist Trevor Boucher said. Sunday’s high is forecast at 76.

Chris Outler, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, said the next week will bring “pretty quiet weather.”

“It will be warming up a bit from what it has been,” Outler said, with temperatures closer to normal for this time of year.

Light winds are expected throughout the week, and no rain is in the five-day forecast.

“It’s going to be a generally really nice week,” Boucher said.

Monday will see a high of 77, followed by highs of 78 on Tuesday, 77 on Wednesday and 76 on Thursday and Friday.

Nighttime lows will hover from the upper 40s to low 50s.
