Las Vegas Weather is Fabulous

Las Vegas Weather is Fabulous!

Las Vegas’ weather is typical of desert climates in the western portion of the United States. The area enjoys year-round sunshine, with an annual average of 300 sunny days and just short of 4,000 total hours of sunshine.

Average temperatures for Las Vegas range from nearly 80 F for the average high to just over 56 F for the low.  Temperatures soar in the summer months, regularly around 100 F, with a record high of 117 F in the books.  Winters are typically short and mild, with highs near 60 F and lows near 40 F, although the lowest winter temperature on record is 8 F.

Annual rainfall totals right at 4.5 inches, making Las Vegas’ weather among the nations’ most arid.  The city sees precipitation, on average, less than 30 days out of the year, most of which occurs during the winter months. While snow is rarely seen in the city itself, the surrounding mountains are typically capped in white during the winter. In fact, nearby Mount Charleston (about 35 miles northwest of Vegas) is a popular local ski resort destination.
