Weather data is prone to errors, outages, and other defects. The information on this site is provided as is, without any assurances as to its accuracy or suitability for any purpose. Time zones for airports and weather stations are provided by. Names, locations, and time zones of places and some airports come from the GeoNames Geographical Database. Land Use data comes from the Global Land Cover SHARE database, published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.Įlevation data comes from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM), published by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. This reanalysis combines a variety of wide-area measurements in a state-of-the-art global meteorological model to reconstruct the hourly history of weather throughout the world on a 50-kilometer grid. Please note that each source's contribution is adjusted for elevation and the relative change present in the MERRA-2 data.Īll data relating to the Sun's position (e.g., sunrise and sunset) are computed using astronomical formulas from the book, Astronomical Algorithms 2nd Edition, by Jean Meeus.Īll other weather data, including cloud cover, precipitation, wind speed and direction, and solar flux, come from NASA's MERRA-2 Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis. To get a sense of how much these sources agree with each other, you can view a comparison of Mesquite and the stations that contribute to our estimates of its temperature history and climate. KSGU, 67% 33 mi, 1,335 ft KLSV, 33% 66 mi, 272 ft © OpenStreetMap contributors Nellis Air Force Base (KLSV, 33%, 66 mi, southwest, 272 ft elevation change).Saint George Municipal Airport (KSGU, 67%, 33 mi, northeast, 1,335 ft elevation change).The stations contributing to this reconstruction are: The estimated value at Mesquite is computed as the weighted average of the individual contributions from each station, with weights proportional to the inverse of the distance between Mesquite and a given station. There are 2 weather stations near enough to contribute to our estimation of the temperature and dew point in Mesquite.įor each station, the records are corrected for the elevation difference between that station and Mesquite according to the International Standard Atmosphere, and by the relative change present in the MERRA-2 satellite-era reanalysis between the two locations. Nevada: Nevada Department of Transportation highway conditions.This report illustrates the typical weather in Mesquite, based on a statistical analysis of historical hourly weather reports and model reconstructions from Januto December 31, 2016.Sierra Nevada Passes: CA120 (Tioga Pass), CA108 (Sonora Pass), CA4 (Ebbetts Pass), CA88 (Carson Pass). No timeline for reopening.Ĭaltrans: California Department of Transportation highway conditions. Grotto Canyon - Extensive flood damage.Racetrack Road - Extensive flood damage.Titus Canyon Road (one-way section) - Extensive flood damage.Salt Creek Road - Flooding destroyed the boardwalk.Wildrose Canyon beyond Charcoal Kilns - Seasonal closure due to ice and snow.Thank you for your patience as we work to reopen these locations. The roads were completely washed out in places and entry will cause tire tracks and braided roads in wilderness as users try to locate what was once the road.
Note that road closures listed below apply to ALL vehicles, including motorcycles and bicycles.
Large areas of missing pavement following floods. Road crews have worked hard to reopen the majority of paved roads, but there is still a lot of work to be done in the backcountry. Many areas of the park were heavily impa cted, damaged, or closed follo wing record rainfall in August. Road conditions can change quickly, as seen in this image after a flood in Titus Canyon 12/2021.
