las vegas weather

The National Weather Service in Las Vegas, Nevada 
issued a statement yesterday saying they had reached a record “dew point depression” of 129 degrees (or: low humidity of 1%) when their temperature was 107 with a dew point of -22 F.

Las Vegas’ largest dew point depression ever recorded was set on June 27, 2011 at 129 degrees. The dew point depression is the difference between the air temperature and dew point temperature.

About 4,000 homes in the metropolitan Phoenix area are without power -- and air-conditioning -- on a record-shattering day of heat in one of the nation's hottest cities.

Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue to move northeast at 15 to 20 mph from Nipton California towards Boulder City Nevada and towards the Lake Mead National Recreation Area through 11 PM tonight. This activity will be capable of producing brief heavy downpours...gusty winds of 40 mph...and small hail. Some showers may occur in the southeast part of the Las Vegas Valley as this activity moves by.
