Extreme heat warning issued for Sunday, Father's Day
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Happy Friday, expect a hot weather pattern well into the weekend. Temperatures will increase each day with afternoon highs on Sunday, Father's Day, between 8 to 12 degrees above normal. Temps increase this weekend Extreme heat warning for Sunday Breezy winds are hanging around There is an extreme warning for Sunday because the temperature is expected to be 108 degrees. Because it also happens to be Father's Day, some families may be planning to spend time outdoors. The extreme heat warning is in effect from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., so it's important to take precautions to avoid heat exhaustion by having access to air conditioning and drinking plenty of water. Meanwhile, breezy winds will stick around. Relative humidity values have dropped to the single digits, with very little moisture. This means an increase in fire danger and the spread of fires. Early next week, there will be some relief as temperatures slide back down by 4 to 6 degrees but will rise back up toward the end of the week.
