Northern Nevada hits record dry spell
By Cassie Wilson, KRNV-TV
Dry weather is common in Northern Nevada; we are of course a high desert. But as of Aug. 10, the Reno-Tahoe Airport officially hit a 79-day dry spell.
In the last 10 years, the longest dry pattern we’ve seen was 92 days in the summer of 2011. And the current dry spell record is 129 days, which was set from July 19-Nov. 24, 1995.
The airport hasn’t registered rain since May 23, but many other places across Nevada have.
