Area forecast discussion, May 24, 4:10 AM PDT, 5 hours 36 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Las Vegas NV 410 AM PDT Sun May 24 2026 .KEY MESSAGES... * Mainly dry conditions and above normal temperatures will continue through Memorial Day. * Breezy winds and cooler temperatures will spread across the region beginning Tuesday. && .DISCUSSION...Today through next weekend. A weak ridge of high pressure will remain in place across much of the region today, keeping temperatures above normal in many locations. Afternoon highs will top out 3 to 7 degrees above climatological normals through Memorial Day, with afternoon breezes developing each day. Modest mid-level moisture remains in place across the southern Great Basin, and this, along with strong afternoon heating, may support isolated to scattered high-based showers and virga over the Sierra and portions of Inyo, Esmeralda, central Nye, and Lincoln Counties this afternoon and evening. Elsewhere, dry conditions will persist through tomorrow. By mid-week, a change in the pattern is expected as a fairly deep trough of low pressure over the Pacific Northwest drops south into the Great Basin. The low is then expected to slowly move across our area during the second half of the week while gradually weakening. As this system drops south, gusty south to west winds are expected across much of the area Tuesday and Wednesday, with the strongest winds likely across our typical wind prone areas of the western Mojave Desert, southern Nevada, and central and northern Mohave County in Arizona. Temperatures will also cool from Wednesday onward, with readings falling to a few degrees below normal in many areas. Given its inland origins, moisture with this system will remain limited, with only the southern Great Basin seeing any meaningful increase in POPs, and even there rainfall amounts will remain light. Improving conditions are expected late in the week and into next weekend as heights rise and temperatures return to near normal levels. && .AVIATION...For Harry Reid...For the 12Z Forecast Package...Light south-southwest winds early this morning will give way to southeasterly breezes by mid-morning. Winds will increase this afternoon while gradually turning more southerly. Gusts to around 20 knots are expected during the afternoon and early evening hours, with wind directions generally between 140 and 190 degrees. Winds will weaken after sunset and return to their typical south-southwest direction. VFR conditions will prevail with mainly clear skies this morning, then FEW to SCT high clouds with bases AOA 20kft AGL thereafter. For the rest of southern Nevada, northwest Arizona and southeast California...For the 12Z Forecast Package...Light winds early this morning will give way to another round of moderate south-southeast breezes this afternoon. Occasional gusts generally between 15 and 25 knots are also possible from mid-afternoon through early evening at most area terminals. The exception will be near KDAG, where easterly breezes are expected this afternoon followed by the typical westerly push in the evening. Isolated showers and/or virga are possible along the Sierra, southern Great Basin, and northeastern Mohave County during the afternoon. Gusty, erratic winds are possible near any shower or virga activity. VFR conditions will prevail in all other areas. && .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...Spotters are encouraged to report any significant weather or impacts according to standard operating procedures. && DISCUSSION...Planz AVIATION...Planz For more forecast information...see us on our webpage: https://weather.gov/lasvegas or follow us on Facebook and Twitter
