Las Vegas is at the heart of the hottest,
harshest desert in North America, and so receives less than four inches of rain
(10cm) per year.
Las Vegas temperatures, however, vary enormously, with daytime maximums averaging over
100°F (38°C) in July and August, and night-time minimums dropping below freezing
in December and January.
The midsummer heat on the Strip is unbearable, making it impossible to walk any
distance during the day, so the ideal months to visit are April, May, September
and October.
If you’re planning to come to Las Vegas this summer, you should
think about the local weather conditions before you leave home.
Las Vegas is currently experiencing extreme heat conditions that involve
temperatures exceeding 110 degrees Fahrenheit. Southern Nevada
temperatures have been ranging from the low 110’s to 119 degrees and
nearby Death Valley and Needles, California have experienced
temperatures of 123 degrees.
