South Lake Tahoe's air pressure is affected by its location in the Sierra Nevada mountains. The mountains block or redirect air flows, making air pressure change rapidly.
The town's high elevation, 6,200 feet above sea level, also impacts air pressure. As you go up in elevation, air pressure decreases, making it thinner and easier to breathe.
In winter, cold air from the north brings low pressure, causing snowstorms. In summer, warm air from the west brings high pressure, bringing clear skies and warm weather.
South Lake Tahoe has a humid continental climate, characterized by cold winters and warm summers. This climate type means large pressure changes between seasons, making weather forecast tricky.
