Las Vegas hit with dust and thunderstorms caught on video
A streak of wild weather has recently swept through the Las Vegas area. Wind and dust storms blew through the Las Vegas Valley with gusts of over 60 mph on July 1, according to the National Weather Service. Video captured by resident Rick Carrillo shows the lack of visibility brought on by the storms. Nearly 2,000 people remain without power in Clark County – the home of the Strip in Paradise and the city of Las Vegas – as of 2:16 p.m. PT July 2, according to USA TODAY's Power Outage Tracker. The county has opened all cooling centers and has set up an emergency shelter at the South Hall of the convention center. The NWS issued severe thunderstorm warnings for parts of the valley Tuesday, even though there "little-to-no" lightning activity from the storms, later clarifying in a post on X that they chose that designation to communicate the nature of the danger posed by the storms. "Simply put, a Severe Thunderstorm Warning was the best tool in our tool box to use to message the sudden, isolated, very strong impacts to our Valley," the Las Vegas office wrote. Accuweather forecasts that the storms will linger around Las Vegas through Wednesday, July 3 with normal weather returning by the Fourth of July. The forecaster predicted a high of 93 degrees with showers and localized damaging wind gusts for July 2, a 10 degree drop from the city's average of 103 degrees. The forecast for June 3 sees temperatures pass the 100-degree mark with a high of 101 degrees but a 0% chance of precipitation.
