ORIGINAL STORY
Las Vegas woke up to some chilly temps on Monday morning.
Early Monday morning temperatures were in the 40s but it felt like the 30s with the wind.
Highs won't climb past the upper 50s this afternoon, which is 16 degrees colder than average.
The valley will be back in the 40s by about 9 p.m. and Tuesdays high will only be a few degrees warmer with wind gusts of 25mph.
Unfortunately, Wednesday will not be any warmer. In fact, it will be about 20 degrees below average with only a high of around 54 degrees. Temperatures could dip below freezing on Wednesday night.

Thursday's highs will be in the upper 50s around 5 p.m. and trick-or-treaters will definitely need a jacket.
Finally, it will start warming up a bit on Friday with temperatures in the upper 60s and we'll be back in the low 70s by the weekend.
