If you’ve been loving the warm, sunny days in Las Vegas lately, you’ll need to prepare for a little change this weekend. Starting Sunday, March 2, 2025, we’re in for a cooler stretch with winds picking up and a chance of showers. It’s a little break from the usual dry heat, so here’s what you can expect.
Sunday, March 2: Breezy and Cooler with a Chance of Showers
On Sunday, the weather will feel a bit chillier than usual. Temperatures will peak around 74°F (23°C)—not bad, but definitely cooler than the warmer days we’ve been having. Winds will pick up, so it might feel a bit breezy, especially if you’re outside for any length of time. While there’s only a small chance of rain, it’s worth keeping an eye out for some passing showers, just in case the clouds decide to drop a little rain.
Monday, March 3: Cloudy and Even Cooler with More Showers
Monday will bring even cooler temps, only reaching around 70°F (21°C), with clouds moving in throughout the day. You’ll want to carry an umbrella or rain jacket, as the chance of rain increases, especially in the afternoon. Lows will dip to about 48°F (9°C), so it’ll be a much cooler evening than what we’ve gotten used to lately.
What This Means for You
Whether you’re planning to enjoy a day out on the Vegas Strip, or you’ve got some outdoor plans in mind, here’s how you can stay prepared:
-
Outdoor Plans:
If you’ve got outdoor activities lined up, like a walk or a visit to a park, be prepared for cooler, breezy conditions and possibly a quick rain shower, especially on Monday. Make sure to have a light jacket or umbrella with you in case the weather turns. -
Traveling Around the City:
If you’re heading out on the roads, be mindful of the winds, especially on Sunday. If you’re in a larger vehicle, like a truck or RV, wind gusts could make driving a bit tricky. Take your time, and keep your hands on the wheel! -
What to Wear:
After enjoying the warmer temps lately, you’ll want to layer up for the weekend. Even if it’s sunny, the breeze will make it feel cooler, so make sure you have a light jacket or sweater handy. If you’ll be out in the evening, be sure to bring something warmer as the temps will drop.
A Glimpse of Spring
- Tuesday, March 4: Things warm up slightly with highs around 62°F (17°C) and low chances of rain. It’ll be a good day for being outside if you’re not a fan of the cool weather!
- Wednesday, March 5: More sunshine will return with warmer temps around 64°F (18°C). It’s looking like we’ll get back to our regular dry, sunny weather by midweek.
A Refreshing Break from the Heat
Las Vegas is known for its dry, sunny weather, but this weekend’s cooler temps and chance of rain are a nice change. It’s a reminder that spring is right around the corner. Whether you’re enjoying the break from the heat or just need to adjust your plans for some rain, it’s a good time to embrace the variety that spring weather brings.
