Dennis Mattinson / Sierra Atmospheric Forecast April 16th
Area Forecast Discussion


Owens Valley / Mammoth Lakes / Mono County / Death Valley


Dennis Mattinson / Sierra Atmospheric Forecaster

Synopsis - THU APR 16 2026

A change in the weather pattern arrives today, as the next system off the coast of British Columbia, dives into the Great Basin. This system will affect mostly points to our North (Reno Metro area and the inner-basin and range). So our primary concern will be Southwesterly post frontal winds, particularly in places like Independence and Mammoth. Cooler Friday, then things settle down and warm up thru next Monday.

Area Wide Temperatures Today:

Bishop: 69 / 24


Big Pine: 71 / 28


Independence: 72 / 33


Lone Pine: 74 / 35


Olancha: 74 / 37


Mammoth Lakes: 43 / 17


Death Valley: 92 / 53 https://sierrawave.net/?p=103407
