Moseying around outside this weekend? 🤠 A gradual warming trend peaks on Saturday, with temperatures nearing triple digits in Reno. These unseasonably hot temperatures result in moderate to locally high HeatRisk. Plan for the heat now by visiting weather.gov/safety/heat #nvwx

Though temps have been well above normal, beginning next week the area will see much colder temps. Overnight lows Mon night into Tues morning will dip into the upper 20s to mid 30s. If you have sensitive vegetation, please ensure you protect them from freezing! #nvwx

Though it will again be warm today, relief is on the way! Look for a round of cooler temperatures for the upcoming weekend across northern and central Nevada with dry conditions prevailing. #nvwx

The Great Basin Smokejumpers just headed out from @NIFC_Fire for their first mission of #FireYear2024 🪂 Two crews flew to Cedar City, Utah and Ely, Nevada to get “pre-positioned,” which means they will be at-the-ready to quickly deploy to any wildfires that start in those areas.

It'll be a hot one today! Forecast high in Las Vegas is 108°, which is near 10° above-average. 🥵🌡️ Life Pro Tip: Put a frozen water bottle in front of a fan for extra cooling! (Never tried it, so please report back if you do!) 🤔 Do YOU have a #LPT to share to escape the heat?

Headed out to hike or boat this weekend? Be sure to pack plenty of water and do your desert hiking early in the day or in the evening. Gusty afternoon southwest winds will lead to choppy waters on area lakes Saturday and Sunday. #nvwx #cawx
