Las Vegas Faces Extreme Heat Warning as Broadway Concert Approaches

Las Vegas is under an extreme heat warning on Monday, with temperatures forecasted to reach as high as 115 degrees from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. This could mark the hottest day of the year thus far, surpassing the previous high of 110 degrees recorded on June 15, 2025. Death Valley may also experience even more extreme conditions, with temperatures predicted to range between 120 and 125 degrees.

Other areas within Clark County are not immune to the rising temperatures. Moapa Valley is expected to reach highs of 110-115 degrees, while Pahrump, Indian Springs, and Amargosa Valley are projected to see similar readings between 105-115 degrees.

The National Weather Service has issued guidelines urging residents to stay hydrated and avoid prolonged exposure to the sun to mitigate the risk of heat-related illnesses. To provide relief, cooling stations have been activated across Clark County, specifically for those in need, including individuals experiencing homelessness.

Upcoming Concert Celebrating Women of Broadway

As the extreme heat warning takes hold of the Las Vegas area, a concert titled “Celebrating The Women of Broadway” is scheduled for July 26 at the Charleston Heights Arts Center. The event will feature renowned performer Rose Kingsley, a Metropolitan Opera diva, who will deliver iconic songs from beloved musicals such as “Funny Girl,” “My Fair Lady,” and “West Side Story.”

General admission tickets for the concert are priced at $10 and can be purchased online. The doors will open 30 minutes prior to the 2 p.m. showtime. During her performance, Kingsley is set to honor legendary female artists, including Liza Minnelli, Barbra Streisand, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Brightman, and Bernadette Peters.

Current Weather Conditions and Community Impact

As residents prepare for the concert amidst the extreme heat warning, many parts of the Las Vegas Valley are also experiencing smoky conditions caused by wildfires in California, compounded by ongoing fireworks usage. Recent storms that swept through the area have also caused damage, with winds reaching up to 70 mph, resulting in downed trees and power lines. Emergency services were required to rescue two individuals trapped in a flood channel in downtown Las Vegas due to the storms.

Residents of certain complexes have reported power outages and insufficient cooling solutions as the region grapples with both the aftermath of the storms and the imminent heat wave. This comes after Las Vegas recorded its earliest 110-degree day on Father’s Day, signaling a pattern of rising temperatures this year.

Looking Ahead

Following Monday’s extreme heat, the temperatures are expected to slightly decrease but will remain elevated. The National Weather Service has indicated that temperatures could fall to between 100-105 degrees starting Tuesday and continuing through the weekend. Additionally, monsoon moisture is anticipated to bring slight chances of rain beginning Thursday, lasting through Sunday.
