A plunge of cool air has overtaken the western part of the nation, but AccuWeather meteorologists say its staying power will be short with warmer, drier weather already on the horizon.
People will be reaching for warmer clothes just in time for October as temperatures will plunge below the historical average and unsettled conditions develop.
"Around Las Vegas, highs in the 70s are forecast into Monday which is more on par with early November," AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Alex Sosnowski said. Rain showers that dampen the road and lead to slippery conditions are expected to be the most widespread impact to travelers throughout the West over the coming days.
"Strong winds can occur across the Rockies through Sunday, which can lead to an elevated wildfire risk across eastern Arizona and western New Mexico, where fuels remain dry," Taylor said.Showery weather can continue across portions of the Northwest early in the new week as chilly air lingers but much of the region will experience a shift toward drier conditions.
