Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion Horseshoe Meadows Weather

Anyone have a good site for weather in horseshoe meadows area? I am planning on heading up that way this weekend for some fly fishing so was wanting to see if the storms had passed through

Thanks!

I like this page

Center and click on the google map the place you want and check above the elevation to be sure (look for POINT FORECAST)

I was at HSM on July 30. 36 degrees at 7 am. Next day I camped at the Portal with 58 degrees at same time. Big difference!

Have fun

Josh, the Mt Whitney Weather page (link always in the "Feature Topics" box to the left) has a NOAA "Whitney Summit Weather" link at the top.

That link takes you near the Mt Whitney summit. You should be able to zoom in and move that map and click on the Horseshoe Meadows area to get a more specific forecast, but of course it is computer-generated and estimated or extrapolated. But that is, I think, as close as you can get.

Now... I see the NOAA site is not behaving properly as I write this, and is reporting some technical difficulty: The "Forecast At A Glance" icons, hourly weather graph feature, Spanish version, and temperatures in Celsius are temporarily not available for this location for technical reasons. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Thanks for the great resources guys!

California Resources Board real time stations...never go the Sierra without consulting one.
