Snow Dusting Finds Las Vegas
The National Weather Service says snow has reached the northeast valley and could fall on the Spring Mountains later today.
LAS VEGAS, NV - Snow in Las Vegas? Indeed, snow in Las Vegas. Alright, so maybe it isn't coming down in piles, like the picture might indicate, but anytime it snows around these parts it's a story. According to the National Weather Service, snow is making its way to southern Nevada and has already reached some parts of the Las Vegas valley.
As of 10:30 a.m., NWS reported that portions of the northeast valley. As the day progresses, "heavier bursts of snow," are expected in the Spring Mountains around midday.
You'll still have to make the drive to Mt. Charleston if you want to do some skiing, but be sure to exercise caution while driving if there is any precipitation in your area.
