Las Vegas, a Wind Advisory just dropped and this weekend is not the one to be outside. The National Weather Service has issued an official Wind Advisory running from Saturday morning through Sunday night.
The combination is what matters here. Extreme heat on its own is serious.
If you're driving this weekend, pay attention to what you're driving. High-profile vehicles, trucks, SUVs, RVs, anything tall and wide, are at real risk on north-south roads where crosswinds have a full lane to work with.
Strong winds also mean tree limb damage and a real chance of scattered power outages across the valley. The exact locations are unpredictable, and extent depends on where the heaviest gusts concentrate.
Here's the good news, and there is good news. A front pushing down from the Pacific Northwest is expected to arrive Wednesday.
Before you head into the weekend, here's the short version of what actually matters. Bring in outdoor furniture and unsecured objects tonight or first thing Saturday.
Las Vegas. One hundred degrees plus fifty-five mile per hour gusts equals stay inside, stay hydrated, and secure your stuff.
