LAS VEGAS — A Flood Watch is in effect for much of the Desert Southwest today as storms have the potential to drop 1" of rain in some spots (and perhaps 2" of rain in the mountains). The chance of a thundershower in Las Vegas is 50% this afternoon and lingers at 30% this evening. Temperatures should be limited to the mid and upper 90s this afternoon as storms develops. High humidity continues the rest of the week, although the storm chance dips slightly to 30% Wednesday and 20% Thursday. Highs remain in the mid-to-upper 90s all week due to the monsoon mugginess. Overnight lows will be in the upper 70s and low 80s during this stretch. Scattered storms Friday (40% chance) may thin out a tad this weekend (30% chance) so don't cancel outdoor plans. We'll have to keep an eye on the sky for spotty storms through early next week.
