Las Vegas Kicks Off Weekend With Record High Temperatures
All that sun today was enough to tie a record high temperature for February 9 in the Las Vegas valley.
LAS VEGAS, NV - Not a bad way to start the weekend. The National Weather Service is reporting that the Las Vegas valley tied the record high temperature for today's date, February 9, by reaching 78 degrees.
The record was previously set in 2015. The high temperatures were expected this weekend, but you can never really predict the weather in the desert. One day it could be 78 degrees and sunny, and the next day could bring swirling winds. (Yes, that might actually happen tomorrow. The National Weather Service is already issuing wind advisories for Saturday.)
