Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

38°F to 58°F

Dec – Feb

Cool, dry weather makes this the prime season for desert hikes and Lake Mead outings with your pet. Nights can drop near freezing, so bring short-haired pets indoors after dark. The low humidity and comfortable daytime temperatures are perfect for long walks on Henderson’s trail network.

Spring

50°F to 82°F

Mar – May

Temperatures climb quickly, so start shifting walks to earlier in the morning by April. Desert wildflowers bloom after wet winters, making trail walks especially scenic. Rattlesnakes emerge from hibernation, so keep pets on leash and on marked trails in desert areas.

Summer

78°F to 105°F

Jun – Aug

Extreme heat makes outdoor activity dangerous for pets during most of the day. Walk only before 7 AM or after 9 PM, and always test pavement with your hand before stepping out. Keep air conditioning running for indoor pets and ensure multiple water sources are available at all times.
