Forecast

Henderson, Nevada's barometric pressure is typically high. It averages around 30.12 inches of mercury. This is due to its desert location.

The surrounding landscape is flat and desert-like. Mountains are far from the city. This allows high-pressure systems to dominate the area.

The landscape prevents moisture from nearby bodies of water from reaching Henderson. The Sierra Nevada mountain range blocks moisture from the Pacific Ocean. Additionally, the Cascade Range blocks moisture from the Gulf of Alaska.

As a result, high-pressure systems bring dry air from the deserts to the east. This keeps the barometric pressure high in Henderson. The city's weather is dry and sunny most of the time.
