We could see record breaking high temperatures this weekend for both Reno and South Lake Tahoe! Which means the first 90 and 80 degree days of the year are just around the corner. Have outdoor plans? Make sure to stay hydrated!
Getting outside this weekend? Afternoon highs will reach the upper 80s and 70s (valleys and Sierra communities, respectively) by Saturday. Bring plenty of water as well as the proper gear (hats, sunscreen, etc.).
