8-22-2015 – Hazy Smoky Skies… Cancel that taste of Fall!

8-21-2015 – 1 PM – Hello from Mammoth Lakes, unfortunately we have lost our clear blue skies. At this time we have very hazy skies from dissipating smoke from the Rough fire.  The smoke now stretches from south of Ridgecrest all the way up to Reno and beyond. After days of mostly clear skies in Mammoth Lakes the Rough fire exploded on Thursday and is causing so much smoke out put that there is no way to escape it s grip until the fire backs down.   We expect to see periods of off and on smoke until we get some rain and or snow into the Sierra.   No sign of that happening in the next week to 10 days. We where expecting a big cool down this week, but you can cancel that as well.  It s going to be September until we get the real cool down we are waiting for. Current weather conditions: As of this post I have a temperature here at 8175 of 72, we have a 81 at the Mammoth Airport and a 77 at Footloose Sports.  Up at the Main Lodge it’s 68 and at the top of Mammoth Mountain it is
