425 AM PDT Sun Oct 25 2026

.KEY MESSAGES...

* Quiet and seasonable conditions through at least Wednesday, with
  signs of a more active pattern returning late in the week.

&&

.DISCUSSION...Today through Saturday.

The upper level low responsible for precipitation and cooler
temperatures the last few days will track east and a zonal flow
pattern will persist aloft for most of the week. This pattern will
promote dry and stable conditions and seasonable temperatures.
Afternoon high temperatures will be within a few degrees of normal
for this time of year, which for Las Vegas means highs in the upper
70s. A pattern shift arrives towards the end of the week as a trough
approaches the west coast and southwesterly flow develops over the
southwestern United States. Potential changes include cooler
temperatures, increased winds, and low to moderate (10 to 50
percent) chances of precipitation over Halloween weekend. Details
regarding the timing and location of these impacts will become more
apparent throughout the week.
