Forecast Outlook - 01/23/25
FIRST ALERT- Cold Winter Storm Arrives Sunday
It has been nearly 200 days since we’ve seen measurable rainfall at Reid Airport. This dry streak is about to end as our first significant winter storm of the season drops in for Sunday and Monday.
Friday stays dry with some cloud cover arriving later in the day. High temperatures hold in the mid 50s.
Saturday will be mostly cloudy with the slight chance of a shower heading into the evening. It will be the drier day this weekend with highs in the mid 50s.
The cold storm moves in Sunday, increasing showers that will continue into Monday. Confidence is growing that this will bring measurable rainfall in the 0.10″ to 0.50″ range. With the long dry stretch, roads will be slick as this is the first significant rain we’ve seen in months.
With this being a cold storm, snow levels will be low; dropping between 2,000 and 4,000 feet Monday morning. This brings the potential for rain/snow mix showers in the Las Vegas Valley. Up in the mountains, 10 to 15 inches of new snow is forecast for Mt. Charleston.
The storm is forecast to move out Wednesday with milder weather returning later next week.
