Outlook
Many records fell across the state yesterday with more anticipated this afternoon in Utah. Southwest winds pick up a bit tomorrow as a low pressure system slides through the northern Rocky Mountains. As this low pressure system passes by to the north tomorrow, it may have enough energy to kick off some high-based dry thunderstorms in our mountains. There's a 30% chance that we could see some isolated t-storms in the valleys of northern and central Utah. Fire danger will be running high tomorrow because of breezy winds and the threat of dry t-storms. Cooler weather expected Thursday with highs in the 70s, a secondary cool front is expected Sunday.
