FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR SOUTHERN NEVADA
NORTHWEST ARIZONA AND SOUTHEAST CALIFORNIA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LAS VEGAS NV
150 AM PDT TUE AUG 11 2026
DISCUSSION
TEMPERATURES COOL OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS WITH
INCREASING HUMIDITIES AS A HIGH PRESSURE EXITS AND MORE MONSOONAL
MOISTURE BUILDS INTO THE AREA. THIS INCREASE IN MOISTURE WILL
ALSO CALL FOR BETTER CHANCES FOR DAILY STORM CHANCES. SOUTHERN
PORTIONS OF THE DISTRICT WILL SEE STORMS CHANCES BEGIN IN THE
LATE MORNING, WHILE THE THE REST WILL SEE CHANCES BEGIN IN THE
AFTERNOON. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL FAVOR THE HIGHER TERRAIN
BEFORE POTENTIALLY SPREADING INTO ADJACENT VALLEYS. STORM CHANCES
DECREASE INTO THE EVENING AND DIMINISH INTO THE NIGHT. TUESDAY AND
THURSDAY WILL FOLLOW A SIMILAR PATTERN OF STORM CHANCES, BUT A
PATTERN CHANGE ON FRIDAY LOOKS TO GREATLY REDUCE THE CHANCES AND
SPREAD OF STORMS. THE PATTERN IS EXPECTED TO CALM FOR THE WEEKEND
ITSELF WITH SLIGHTLY REDUCED HUMIDITIES AND SOME BREEZY WINDS.
NOTE: THUNDERSTORMS IMPLY GUSTY AND ERRATIC WINDS.
