Temperature in Las Vegas is about to drop sharply

Ready your jackets: It’s about to get colder in Las Vegas. ​Nearly 20 degrees colder.

Starting Saturday, the high temperature is expected to drop to about 65 degrees until Tuesday. The high in recent days has been about 85 degrees.

A storm system is bringing dense cloud cover and cooler air into the area, National Weather Service meteorologist Caleb Speele said.

There is a chance of showers Saturday, but they are expected to be confined to the mountains north of Las Vegas, Speele said. The storm system is expected to move out sometime early next week, after which the temperatures are forecast to rise again.

Trick-or-treaters need not worry, though. With the exception of wind picking up in the evening, Speele said, Friday night should be mostly clear.
