Winds diminished, enjoy a cool Las Vegas weekend

Updated May 22, 2021 - 12:18 pm

There will be a bit of chill in the air Saturday, but you might be wise to enjoy it in advance of the Las Vegas summer heat.

Red Rock National Conservation Area recorded a Saturday morning low of 39 while Kyle Canyon dipped to 27.

After a morning low of 60 at McCarran International Airport, the National Weather Service is calling for a high near 73, about 17 degrees below normal.

There is a 20% chance of isolated showers. Winds will be light compared with most of the week. Gusts could reach 20 mph.

The Sunday high will climb about 10 degrees to 83 with winds even a bit lighter.

The Monday high will rise to 89 with mid to upper-90s forecast for the rest of the coming week.
