LAS VEGAS — Flash-flood warnings remained in effect for parts of Clark County, Nevada, late Saturday, October 31, after thunderstorms brought heavy rain to the area.

In an update issued at 7:44 p.m. Pacific time, the National Weather Service office in Las Vegas said a warning for northwestern Clark County would continue until 9:45 p.m. Pacific. Doppler radar and automated rain gauges indicated heavy rain in the warned area.

A separate statement issued one minute earlier kept a flash-flood warning in effect for central Clark County until 9:15 p.m. Pacific. The weather service said radar and gauges were also detecting heavy rainfall there.

The warnings were more urgent than the broader flood watch already covering portions of southern Nevada, northwest Arizona and southeast California through late Sunday night. A flood watch means conditions are favorable for flooding, while a flash-flood warning means flooding is occurring or is considered imminent in the specified area.

The same weather system also produced flood advisories Saturday evening. The weather service reported between one-half and one inch of rain in parts of central Clark County, with minor flooding ongoing or expected in low-lying and poor-drainage areas. In southwestern Mohave County, Arizona, radar and gauges indicated roughly one-quarter to three-quarters of an inch had fallen, with runoff still capable of causing additional flooding.

The warning statements are time-limited and location-specific. Residents and travelers in the affected areas should follow the latest National Weather Service updates because warning boundaries and expiration times can change as storms move.
