Residents and visitors in Death Valley National Park, specifically elevations below 2000 feet, are advised to prepare for a Wind Advisory issued by the National Weather Service Las Vegas NV. The advisory is effective from 2 PM PDT this Saturday until 5 AM PDT Monday.

South winds of 25 to 35 mph with gusts up to 60 mph are expected. These strong winds can make driving difficult, especially for high-profile vehicles. Tree limbs could be blown down, and a few power outages may occur. There may be a lull in winds from late Saturday night through Sunday morning before increasing again Sunday afternoon.

Actionable information for the public:

  • Secure all outdoor objects to prevent them from blowing away.
  • Exercise extra caution when driving, particularly if operating high-profile vehicles.

Please monitor the latest forecasts and warnings for updates from the National Weather Service.
