Carson City weather: Gusty winds prompt Red Flag Warning, cooler temperatures to follow
Winds will become increasingly strong and gusty Friday afternoon and Saturday prompting a Red Flag Warning by the National Weather Service for much of western Nevada and Carson City region.
This combined with low humidity will create conditions where fires can rapidly grow in size and intensity before first responders can contain them. Increased fire danger will continue through Saturday.
Exercise caution near dry grass and brush to prevent new fire starts. Gusty winds will also create choppy and hazardous conditions on area lakes Friday and Saturday. Lake Wind Advisories are in effect. Boating, kayaking, and paddle boarding will be hazardous. Remember to wear a personal floatation device at all times.
Meanwhile, much cooler temperatures will extend into Carson City, Carson Valley and Dayton areas this weekend, with daytime highs in the 70s on Saturday and Sunday.
