Wednesday may see a high around 70 before a storm system brings a 20% chance of showers Wednesday night into Thursday.
“It will just be a quick system moving across Southern California and Southern Nevada,” said weather service meteorologist John Adair.
Spring weekend
After the system moves through the are, temperatures will rise into the mid-70s for the weekend.
“Saturday will have winds of 20 to 30 mph, but they will be from the southwest rather than the north,” Adair said, adding it will feel more like spring.
Sunday will be calmer and a high of 74 is in the current forecast.
