A Wind Advisory is now in effect for Nevada’s Colorado River Valley, beginning late Monday morning and continuing until Tuesday afternoon. Powerful north winds, with gusts hitting 50 mph, are anticipated to create dangerous conditions throughout the area.
The U.S. National Weather Service in Las Vegas has indicated that the advisory will especially impact high-profile vehicles traveling on east-west roads, such as U.S. Route 95 and State Route 163. Motorists are advised to brace for difficult travel conditions, as swirling dust and debris could impair visibility.
Boaters on Lake Mohave should remain vigilant and take care because of dangerous conditions. Small watercraft could struggle to maintain stability in strong winds. Homeowners are advised to safeguard outdoor furniture, waste bins, and any other objects that might be swept away by the wind.
On Monday, expect bright sunshine and a high temperature of 61°F. However, be prepared for strong north-northeast winds, which will sustain speeds of 20 to 30 mph, with gusts potentially hitting 40 to 50 mph in certain locations. Winds are anticipated to ease a bit by Tuesday evening, but breezy conditions will persist into the middle of the week.
The upcoming weather outlook for the Las Vegas region indicates predominantly clear skies with temperatures reaching the low 60s until Thursday. Chillier nights ahead, with temperatures falling into the upper 30s.
Community members are encouraged to remain informed via local weather channels and to implement safety measures throughout the advisory timeframe.
