Wind, high of 90 forecast in Las Vegas on Thursday

Sunny skies, a high of 90 and winds gusting up to 20 mph are forecast on Thursday, April 23, 20 ...

If it hasn’t felt like summer to you, it probably will before Thursday is over.

The forecast high for the Las Vegas Valley is 90 degrees with sunny skies and northerly winds from 7 to 14 mph. Gusts up to 20 mph are possible.

“It’s just sunny and hot,” National Weather Service meteorologist Jenn Varian said of a forecast that calls for a high of 100 by Wednesday, the next-to-last day of April.

The rather quick climb to 100 comes after an April that has generally seen below-average temperatures, reaching 80 degrees only four times this year.

Las Vegas has never reached 100 in April, Varian said, the earliest century reading being May 1.

The low Thursday night should be around 64 with winds 6 to 13 mph.

Friday calls for a high near 87 with lighter winds, about 6 to 11 mph.

Saturday calls for a high of 93, with 95 forecast Sunday.
