Moab Weather
Moab's weather is as varied as its
landscape. The typically mild winters in the lower elevations provide perfect
conditions for hiking, golfing and bicycling while the higher elevations
offer skiing and snowmobiling. An occasional winter snowfall in the red
rock valleys creates an awesome color contrast. Spring flowers come early
to the low country and linger into June in the high mountains. By summer
red rock country is characterized by hot and dry days, mild evening temperatures,
and lingering sunsets. An occasional summer thunderstorm can result in
spectacular waterfalls that cascade from the tops of towering sandstone
cliffs. Daytime temperatures in the mountain valleys and on the mesas can
be as much as 10 to 20 degrees cooler. In the fall aspen and oak trees
add hues of red, yellow, and orange to the green slopes of the alpine mountains.
In some areas a balmy Indian Summer can linger into November.
