Las Vegas Nevada Weather

Posted at 8:33 PM, Jul. 9, 2007

The time was 5:30 P.M. Sunday evening...the temperature in Las Vegas as you can see from the sign was a sizzling 116°.  According to "The Weather Channel" thing on my website the current temperature is 104° and it's 8:30 P.M....ya gotta LOVE it!  It's DRY heat...enough to shrivel one's bones! 

Although it's warm in Las Vegas for a few short months out of the year, you can't beat the rest of the year!  Cool nights, sunny days are the norm 8-9 full months a year.  It is not uncommon to see many a tourist in our 'winter months' wearing shorts and tank tops and right behind them seeing a 'local' bundled up as if they were in snow country!   

Frankly, I would rather deal with the warm weather in Las Vegas during the summers than to deal with shoveling snow in the east in the winter!
