Owens Valley / Mammoth Weather Forecast
Provided by Dennis Mattinson
Forecast Specialist for the Sierra Wave
Another sunny day is in store for us as a high pressure ridge and its associated dry airmass dominates our area. However, that ridge will weaken today and completely collapse on Wednesday as a very cold arctic low pressure system sweeps down into our area.
Today for Bishop & the Owens Valley: A beautiful sunny day with highs in the mid 60s and lows in the mid 20s. Winds will be light and variable.
Today for Mammoth: Sunny, blue skies with southwest wind 10 -15 gusting to 30 mph in the afternoon. High temperatures will be in the low 50s and nighttime temps in the mid teens.
Tomorrow for Bishop & the Owens Valley: Sunny during the day, turning mostly cloudy in the evening. High temps in the upper 50s and lows in the lower 20s.
Tomorrow for Mammoth: Partly to mostly cloudy and windy. Southwest wind 20 -30 gusting to 40 mph in the afternoon. High temps in the upper 40s and lows in the lower teens.
A cold upper low will move through the Great Basin and down into our area Thursday and Friday, bringing with it very low temperatures and a chance of snow in the High Country and flurries to the valley floor. The cold temps should last through the first part of next week.
