Good morning, Carson City. Today is Saturday, Oct. 31, 2026, the day of all days in the Silver State, the Nevada Day statehood celebration. While the skies are cloudy and overcast this morning, it looks like you’ll want to bring umbrellas and rain gear for today’s activities as the forecast calls for rain across western Nevada, particularly in the afternoon. Temperatures will be in the low 50s with calm afternoon winds. Here’s what’s happening around the capital city.
