Wednesday’s 115 degrees ties record

in central and Southern California, Clark County officials say.

Thursday will have fairly light winds, meaning, “We’re really going to feel the heat,” Salmen said.

The valley is expected to tie another record Thursday if the high reaches 114 degrees — the record for the date set in 1995, according to the weather service.

Friday will see a forecast high of 112 degrees before an influx of moisture moves into the valley this weekend, allowing temperatures to return to normal.

Saturday is expected to cool down with a high of 108 degrees and a 20 percent chance of thunderstorms. Sunday is expected to be even cooler with a high of 104 and a 30 percent chance for storms. Contact Lawren Linehan at llinehan@reviewjournal.com or at 702-383-0381. Find @lawrenlinehan on Twitter.
