The Loneliest Road next week?

Even if it did snow there is nothing on that road that would overly concern me or stop me from doing it. (at least through NV)

As long as you watch current weather you should be good until about Thanksgiving.

Traveled this last year, loved it! Would do it again. Bypass Salt Lake City by going around BYU and going through Park City up to I -80. Good way home to the Midwest. Didn't want to go through Colorado, want to have ample time to explore it. We camped in a nice park , the first town we hit after the Great Basin. We made sure we filled up at each town as we were unaware of what was ahead. Nice trip!

I live in Fallon 3 blocks off highway 50. I always leave Fallon with a full fuel tank and top off in Ely, next fuel in Utah. Todays reg. gas $2.47(Chevron $2.57), prices less for diesel. Fox Peak on the east end of Fallon is very easy in and out. I see rain forecasted for Thursday in Ely. I enjoy driving hwy 50. Dick

Took that route east to west 2 years ago - nice ride - actually had allowed 2 travel days, but did it in one, from Great Basin NP to Reno (Sparks). They (tourism) has an "I survived the Lonliest Road" trip guide - it was fun - made us stop to see places we likely would not have otherwise. Just check out fuel stops on the eastern edge! ST

Looking at NOAA 7day forecast, around Ely they are talking of a slight chance of snow showers Thursday night (mix rain/snow). There are some modest range crossing in that area, with a greater chance that it will snow than in the valleys. Most of the route you will be around 6000ft, about the same as Reno.

I would not be concerned with the weather. Looks decent through Thursday.
Austin, NV weather

What is the weather forecast?
