These conditions extend past Flagstaff into the eastern regions, where snow continues to dust the landscape. Cedar City,and areas farther south are seeing cloudy skies with the potential for mixed precipitation. In Nevada, Ely is looking dry at the moment, with clear skies providing a break from the precipitation. Down farther south, Las Vegas and nearby desert locations remain untouched by rain or snow, maintaining their dry spell. Moving towards the coast, San Francisco to Los Angeles enjoys mild weather with only light cloud cover, keeping conditions pleasant for outdoor activities. San Diego follows suit with mainly clear skies, adding to the Southern California sunshine appeal.
