Outlook
A slight chance for isolated t-storms mainly south of SLC today and of course in the mountains. The best chance of the week for thunderstorms will be tomorrow, as a low pressure system helps to lift the atmosphere on a broad level. This will help fire up numerous thunderstorms across Utah tomorrow and some will be capable of heavy rainfall. The flash flood potential is most elevated in central and southern Utah today - Friday. I wouldn't be surprised if a flash flood watch is issued for the southern half of the state Thursday. Temperatures as a result of this system and added rain/cloud cover will drop off into the low 80s with overnight lows in the 60s and 50s along the Wasatch Front. - Matt Johnson, KSL Weather 8.12.26
