Rain, Monsoon Storms & Winter Snow

Page receives relatively little precipitation during a typical year, but rainfall can be intense when thunderstorms develop. Summer monsoon storms can produce lightning, strong winds, localized heavy rain and dangerous flash flooding in slot canyons, washes and other confined terrain.

Visitors planning trips to Antelope Canyon, other slot canyons, Lake Powell or exposed desert trails should check the current forecast immediately before departing. Winter storms occasionally bring snow and icy conditions to Page and surrounding highways.

Spring and fall generally provide the most comfortable weather for sightseeing and hiking. April, May, September and October combine warm daytime temperatures with cooler nights and avoid much of the peak summer heat.

Summer is popular for Lake Powell boating and swimming, but daytime heat can be intense and monsoon thunderstorms require careful weather monitoring.

Winter offers lighter crowds and crisp desert scenery, but visitors should be prepared for freezing nights, occasional snow and cold conditions on the water.
