Las Vegas weather
 
Can anyone tell me what the weather is going to be like this weekend? We're coming in for some golfing on Saturday, and wondering if it's shorts or long pants weather during the day.<BR><BR>Also, how cold is it going to be at night? I've only been in the middle of summer. Should I bring a jacket and boots for going out at night, or am I going to be boiling in the casinos/shows if I do? <BR>

Don't know why you couldn't have done this yourself, but weather.com says Saturday will be partly cloudy with a low to mid-seventies high, and low-fifties low.

LostAndConfused Oct 28th, 2002 03:46 PM

I did check the forecast for LV on that site. Unfortunately, i've found that weather.com is not always accurate. For instance, it says it's 72 degrees outside where i am now, but i will tell you that i'm dressed in a coat, pants, and boots.

So you're hoping that God is gonna respond to your question?

weatherwoman Oct 28th, 2002 03:52 PM

So the weather forecast from an anonymous poster from anywhere in the world would be more accurate?

LostAndConfused Oct 28th, 2002 04:06 PM

The weather forecast from a RESIDENT OF LAS VEGAS is what I was obviously looking for. <BR><BR>I was not looking for smart ass remarks from a flippant 12 year old who would be better served doing his homework instead of making obvious suggestions (i.e. 5th grader suggestion to look at the weather page).<BR><BR>Yet another valid question going to the pitts because of stupidity by people like weatherman/woman.<BR><BR>Sigh.

weatherman Oct 28th, 2002 04:14 PM

So you think a LV resident has a better idea than the local/national meteorologists? Do you know what the weather on Saturday is going to be where you live? Didn't think so!!! Valid question....NOT!!!!

weatherperson Oct 28th, 2002 04:14 PM

No, it was a stupid question to begin with. <BR><BR>

Lost and Confused: you get the &quot;dumbest rebuttal of the month award&quot;!!<BR><BR>Pretty funny, actually.

Can anyone tell me if the stock market is going up or down next week? The so-called experts don't seem to know, so I was hoping that someone who lives near Wall Street could tell me.<BR>

I was in Vegas during the week of 10/14-10/20. The weather was very nice, and warm during the day. People were still lying out by the pool (didn't see anyone swimming). The nights were cooler. I was very comfortable wearing my pashima across my shoulders. I also took a leather jacket with me. Wearing boots and a jacket at night will be fine. The temperature in the casinos vary. Just wear something that you can remove easily if you get too warm.

lvres Oct 28th, 2002 09:36 PM

Weather during the day should be around 70 or so. Nights get cool (50's), you need a light jacket but no boots. The casinos are notoriously cold - they want to keep you awake!

donna Oct 28th, 2002 09:58 PM

It was over 100 degrees when I was there last summer!

Sarah Oct 28th, 2002 10:36 PM

Wow, that's hot. It was quite a bit colder when I went there in Febuary. Is that because of weather?

LostAndConfused Oct 29th, 2002 07:59 AM

Thanks for the info Rhonda and Ivres!

weatherman Oct 29th, 2002 08:08 AM

Just gotta know (totally)LostAndConfused, what did Rhonda and Ivres write that was anymore helpful than what I wrote (and what you already knew).
