College Prowler Take
Las Vegas has two types of weather: really hot and cold. There are just a few weeks of ultra-comfortable transitioning weather. Summer starts early and ends late here—it’s not unusual to be wearing shorts on Halloween. Temperatures can reach a scorching 120 degrees, so be prepared with sunscreen and lots of breathable clothing. Heat exhaustion is common, so you also have to drink plenty of water in the heat. In winters past, Las Vegas has seen more and more snow, though it melts within a day or so and that degree of cold only comes in bursts. If you’re coming from harsh winters, welcome to Heaven, and be prepared to see locals enthusiastically taking pictures and puzzling over the correct application of snow chains. As far as clothes go, you’ll just need a winter coat and sweaters to layer.

Las Vegas has only two types of weather: either really, really hot in the summer or really, really cold in the winter. I advise to bring a lot of shorts, tanks, and flip flops for the summer and a warm winter coat. During spring season and fall, it's really nice weather so you can even wear spring dresses and fall gowns without bringing a light jacket.

Weather is disgustingly hot in the summer, but winter is a different story. Winters in Vegas can be strange, with some days being warm and others freezing or below.

In Las Vegas, the weather is typically very hot almost all year around. Las Vegas has only two seasons; it'll be extremely hot in October, and then suddenly the weather will start being cold. Although it can get cold, it can't compare to the freezing temperatures on the East Coast.

The weather is cold (surprisingly) in the winter and miserably hot in the summer. Girls walk around almost half naked. |
