High temperatures throughout Northern and Central Nevada Tuesday afternoon will be eleven to thirteen degrees above normal for this time of year. This will result in a moderate risk for heat-related illnesses. Although heat events like this are relatively common and happen many times a year, heat-related impacts are possible for those new to the area if simple precautions are not taken. Plan to take action to reduce time outdoors, drink plenty of water, and remain in air-conditioned buildings. Heat-sensitive groups, such as the elderly, young children, and those with chronic ailments may need assistance to avoid heat-related illnesses. As always, never, ever leave a child or pet in an enclosed automobile.

There is an elevated risk of wildfires in Northeastern Nevada each afternoon and evening Tuesday and Wednesday due to west to northwest wind gusts near 30 mph and minimum relative humidity values as low as eight percent. This combination can contribute to extreme fire behavior. Any fires that develop will likely spread rapidly. Outdoor burning is not recommended.

A warming trend is expected Monday and Tuesday. By Tuesday afternoon, maximum temperatures throughout Northern and Central Nevada will be eleven to thirteen degrees above normal for this time of year. High temperatures across Northern and Central Nevada will remain well above seasonal values both Wednesday afternoon and Thursday afternoon. Here are probabilities of maximum temperatures of 95 degrees or higher for select locations in Northern and Central Nevada from Monday, June 15th, 2026 through Friday, June 19th, 2026.
