Sunshine expected to warm Las Vegas on Friday

More sunshine should be felt in the Las Vegas Valley on Friday, according to the National Weather Service.

Friday night should be mostly clear with a Saturday morning low near 43 in the central valley. Saturday will have sunny conditions and the high temperature will be around 64.
