The dry and unseasonably hot weather continues this weekend as high pressure stays over Southern Nevada. Average high temperature is 72° and we’re going to be well above that this week.
Record breaking heat continues through the week and into the weekend. An Extreme Heat Warning in effect until Sunday 8pm. Limit time outdoors between 10am-5pm, stay in air conditioning when possible and drink plenty of water and sports drinks. Wear a hat and sunscreen if you’re going to be outside.
