The storm system is moving east, allowing the wind to calm as showers move into Arizona. There is the slight chance of a lingering mountain shower around Southern Nevada.

A calm Valentine’s Day is in store as we await the arrival of our next system. Minimal wind and dry weather expected.

Sunday: Clouds Return, Winds Increase

Sunday High: 69° | Conditions: Mostly Cloudy and Breezy

Sunday will turn breezy with mostly cloudy skies as the next system approaches. Southwest winds begin to pick up Sunday afternoon, but precipitation holds off until Monday. This is a more potent system targeting Southern Nevada early next week.

Monday: ⚠️ First Alert Weather Day - Stronger Storm Moving Into Southern Nevada

High: 63° | Conditions: Widespread Rain With Stronger Wind

This is a stronger winter storm. A more potent weather system arrives with widespread precipitation as rain chances increase across the area. Expect gusty conditions with widespread 30-40 mph gusts around the Las Vegas Valley. Cooler temperatures will move in with highs dropping to the low 60s.

Mountain Snow Alert: Heavy snow and moderate-to-major winter impacts are likely in the higher terrain, including the Sierra, White, and Spring Mountains. Snow levels are expected to remain around 7,000 feet or lower, which means this will all fall as snow around Mt. Charleston.

What to do: Secure loose outdoor items, be cautious if traveling, monitor road conditions, and stay with us for updates as this system develops.

Tuesday & Wednesday: ⚠️ First Alert Weather Days - Active Pattern Continues

Tuesday High: 59° | Wednesday High: 58° | Conditions: Continued Rain and Wind

The active pattern continues through the week with precipitation, winds, and cooler temperatures. Confidence quickly drops beyond Monday as models diverge on the timing and placement of subsequent systems, but Tuesday through Thursday is expected to remain unsettled.

What to expect: Below-normal temperatures, gusty winds, and increased precipitation chances. Stay tuned to First Alert Weather for updates as this system develops.
