Gunnison sits in a high mountain valley at about 7,700 feet above sea level. The high elevation means the air pressure is lower than at lower places. The air is also thin and dry, so temperatures can change quickly. Clear skies are common, but storms can move in fast from the surrounding mountains.
The mountains shape Gunnison’s weather. They help block some storms, but they can also cause snow and thunderstorms when moist air rises over them. Winter brings frequent snow, cold nights, and long periods below freezing. Snow can stay on the ground for months. Cold air often settles in the valley overnight, making Gunnison colder than nearby slopes.
Summers are usually sunny, mild, and dry during the day. Nights become cool because the high, dry land loses heat quickly after sunset. Afternoon thunderstorms are common during the summer rainy season, with lightning, gusty winds, and brief heavy rain. Gunnison has a high mountain desert climate, with low humidity, many sunny days, and large changes between daytime and nighttime temperatures.
