While brutally cold temperatures and wind chills rip through the Midwest, Las Vegas residents will be able to get out in shirtsleeves again today.
The National Weather Service is forecasting partly sunny skies with a high this afternoon reaching near 65 degrees in the Las Vegas Valley, along with calm winds becoming east-northeast around 5 mph.

I don't know about you guys, but I definately prefer these driving conditions...
