Climate

According to the Köppen climate classification system, Mount Morgan is located in an alpine climate zone.[1] Most weather fronts originate in the Pacific Ocean, and travel east toward the Sierra Nevada mountains. As fronts approach, they are forced upward by the peaks (orographic lift), causing them to drop their moisture in the form of rain or snowfall onto the range Script error: No such module "weather box".Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".
