Forecast Outlook 8/10/22

The humidity stays with us, providing plenty of moisture to kick off thunderstorms this week. The tradeoff is that temperatures will stay mild with highs holding in the double-digits.

We’re already seeing thunderstorms popping up over the higher elevations early this afternoon. With so much moisture in the atmosphere today, a Flood Watch is in effect for Southern Nevada through midnight tonight. Heavy downpours may lead to localized flash flooding. Along with the flooding risk, gusty wind and lightning are also possible around any thunderstorms that develop.

Thursday will bring another opportunity for thunderstorms during the afternoon and evening. High temperatures hold in the mid to upper 90s.

Scattered thunderstorms continue all the way through the middle of next week. The best chances will be during the afternoon hours with high temperatures holding in the mid to upper 90s throughout the week.
