LAS VEGAS — We're sunny and warm today, but also breezy. It's in the 60s and 70s early and afternoon highs will reach the upper 80s. A round of northeast gusts of 25 mph is here this morning through afternoon, and winds may hit 30-35 mph on the east side of the valley (Nellis, Downtown Henderson, Boulder City). Expect mid 90s Saturday (winds only 5-15 mph) and upper 90s Sunday (southwest gusts 15-35 mph) which is about 15° above-average and could tie the record high of 99° set in 1981. Low 90s linger Monday as a round of strong wind (south gusts 25-35 mph) continues. A drop to the low 80s Tuesday (south gusts 20-30 mph) may be followed by upper 70s next Wednesday and Thursday as breezes linger. No rain chances are in the forecast this week, but pollen levels remain high with ragweed, olive, and grass causing most of the promblems. The UV index remains very high, so remember to use sunscreen and keep a hat handy; a sunburn can happen in just 15 minutes this time of year.
