The Climate data table is incorrect - I don't know where it is from but that is the data for a low hot desert location. Winnemucca has average July highs of 92F NOT 110F. The all time highs are in the 104 - 106 range NOT 125+. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.220.85.188 (talk) 17:01, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The meaning of the name Winnemucca

As stated on the page "The town was named for the 19th-century Chief Winnemucca of the local Northern Paiute tribe, who traditionally lived in this area. Winnemucca, loosely translated, means "one moccasin."

This is partially true and there is no citation provided for the translation of one moccasin. I propose the following change

Winnemucca, loosely translated, means "the giver" ^[1],
