Unseasonably warm temperatures will bless the Las Vegas Valley this Christmas weekend and beyond, says the National Weather Service. And there’s a chance of that rare commodity — rain.

Clouds will increase on Thursday with a high near 59. Winds will be light and variable. A sunny sky will help warm Friday’s high to around 61. Winds will again be calm.

The Saturday high should be near 64 before a possible 65 on Christmas Day. The work week after Christmas will see highs in the mid-60s and lows in the upper 40s with a slight chance of showers on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Harry Reid International Airport has recorded 2.16 inches of rain this year, compared to the yearly norm of 4.18 inches.
