A Lake Wind Advisory has been issued for Mono County in California, and Mineral and Southern Lyon Counties in Nevada. The National Weather Service in Reno, NV, issued this advisory today, October 8, 2026, at 11:21 AM PDT.

Southwest winds are expected to reach speeds of 15 to 25 mph, with gusts up to 40 mph. These conditions are in effect from 11 AM to 11 PM PDT on Saturday, October 9, 2026.

These gusty winds will create rough waves on area lakes, leading to hazardous conditions for small craft. Mariners and lakegoers should check current lake conditions before heading out and be prepared for a sudden increase in winds and wave heights. Residents and visitors are advised to consider postponing boating activities on the lake until a day with less wind.
