.DISCUSSION..
Under the continued influence of a ridge of high pressure through
the weekend, seasonably warm and dry conditions will continue
across northern Clark County outside of isolated showers and
thunderstorms beginning Friday. Best chances for showers and
storms will be during the afternoon hours with a 15% chance on
Friday, a 20% chance on Saturday, and a 30% chance on Sunday.
Winds will be breezy peaking each afternoon with gusts to around
20-30 mph. CWRs at this time remain low given the isolated nature
of precipitation through Saturday but do increase for Sunday
afternoon and evening to around 10 to 20%. Cooler and increasingly
unsettled weather is favored to return next week as a series of
storms move onshore from the Pacific.
