In addition to learning about the geography in Lake Tahoe, we learned about the weather in Lake Tahoe as well. At Lake Tahoe, 250 to 300 days a year are sunny with the percentage rising to 93% in summer, and humidity is very low, again especially in summer, when the temperatures are warm or even hot, averaging in the 70s for the four midsummer months, and with occasional highs in the 90s. Because of the high elevation and the purity of the air, ultraviolet levels are high so care must be taken to prevent sunburn, particularly on the ski slopes in winter when reflections from the snow can double the intensity. Lake Tahoe has never reached the magic 100°F mark, its record high being 99°F set on July 22nd, 1988!
We learned so much today at Lake Tahoe the students were so tired. We had a blast and most of them said they wanted to move here and learn to ski!!!
