Vegas Monsoon Watch: Rain in the Forecast | Las Vegas News

Vegas braces for possible monsoon storms this week, with a 20% chance of thunderstorms today and tomorrow—and more brewing later. While it’s too early to call this summer wetter than usual, atmospheric signs point to increased rain odds, especially with El Niño potentially boosting Pacific tropical storms. NOAA predicts a 40-50% chance of above-average rainfall for Southern Nevada this month, which could extend through September—critical since Vegas averages less than half an inch of rain across July, August, and September. The city just snapped a 124-day dry streak in early June, and while June was the seventh-warmest on record, it dodged the extreme 110-degree days. Rain could be the much-needed relief—so keep those umbrellas handy. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
