Boaters on area lakes in Mono, Mineral, and Southern Lyon Counties are advised to postpone activities due to a Lake Wind Advisory issued by the National Weather Service (NWS) in Reno, NV. The advisory is in effect from Saturday, October 8, 2026, at 11:00 AM PDT, until 11:00 PM PDT on Saturday, October 8, 2026.

Southwest winds are expected to reach 15 to 25 mph, with gusts up to 40 mph. These conditions will create rough waves and hazardous conditions for small craft. This advisory specifically impacts Mono County in California and Mineral and Southern Lyon Counties in Nevada.

The NWS advises individuals to check lake conditions before heading out and to be prepared for a sudden increase in winds and wave heights. Consider postponing boating activities on the lake until a day with less wind.
