Weird Weather Continues
Posted by: lasvegasguy, 03:10 GMT le 15 juin 2012 +0
In typical Las Vegas fashion, we really aren't getting a spring. May was unseasonably hot according to the weather people on television and then the temperatures drop from around 100 into the 70s for the Memorial Day weekend!

Now that it is getting warmer and going to stay that way, I've been weatherproofing my house in Las Vegas to try to keep my power bills down. I also drained my pool and replaced the water before it got too hot outside. For some reason, everyone around me is getting their trees trimmed as well which doesn't make sense to me. Why lose all of that shade and possibly hurt your tree? Why not trim them in the winter when the tree is dormant?

Soon enough the average temperature will be 105 or higher and they will be wishing for more shade on their house. Tourism has been steadily increasing and it look like things are going back to normal in that regard. For anyone thinking of coming to visit, now is a great time weather wise. Not to hot outside but warm enough to enjoy a dip in the pool.

Long Summer Ahead?
Posted by: lasvegasguy, 22:07 GMT le 13 mai 2012 +0
It seems we may be in for a really long summer this year. The last few years we were spoiled with nice weather through most of June. Temperatures didn't hit over a 100 degrees for the most part until July last year. This year we may see over 100 degrees constantly this month through the end of September. Hopefully I wrong.

It looks like it is going to be a hot year, but then again maybe not. So far this month the temperature hit over 100 degrees on my back patio.

Stormy March
Posted by: lasvegasguy, 00:30 GMT le 28 Mars 2012 +0
Well March weather was definitely interesting. We had great weather, highs in the low 80s during the day and we had cold weather, getting down to the 50s plus high winds and rain.Today it is gorgeous outside, in the 70s although it will probably get a lot colder tonight and the forecast is for more wind and some sprinkles. With Spring officially here, a lot of my neighbors are getting their yards in order. If you are thinking about spruing up your yard with some spr...

Unseasonable Weather in Vegas
Posted by: lasvegasguy, 23:52 GMT le 08 février 2012 +0
The only thing that is constant in the winter weather in Las Vegas is that we rarely get any. On average on "cold" months are really more like weeks. Today, the temperature outside was in the mid 60s, and that is typical weather for February despite what the news says. Where else would you hear the sounds of an ice cream truck in February?Normally the weather does get colder and wetter in March with the occassional bursts of wind. Still, compared to other parts of t...
