.KEY MESSAGES...

* Northwest flow aloft will continue to bring periods of north
  winds and cooler temperatures to the region through the week.

Shoshone / Tecopa (currently at 36 degrees), northeastern Clark
County including Mesquite and Moapa (currently at 37 degrees), and

which will increase gusty northerly winds across the forecast area.

between 25 and 35 mph possible in north-south oriented valleys
Wednesday and Thursday. Temperatures will gradually increase late-
week into the weekend, reaching above-normal values by Friday.
