Utah Weather Forecast

Outlook

Over the next few days, we could see several periods of showers and storms. Starting with Thursday night and Friday morning, some high resolution models hint at some lighter showers pivoting across northern Utah. If they were to come to fruition, they seem to clear northern Utah by noon on Friday. Now, while the afternoon may be more dry, there is still an isolated thunderstorm chance if storms were to develop out west or over the Oquirrh Mountains. It looks like our best shot for scattered showers and storms Friday will be in the evening. As we head into Saturday, showers and thunderstorms are expected to move in across northern Utah, as early as 7am, with a cold front. By the afternoon, a few storms may be strong to severe with damaging wind gusts and hail as the primary concerns. Flash flooding will be an elevated threat on Saturday in southern Utah. Moral of the story: keep the rain gear handy from Thursday night through the weekend and keep your eyes to the skies. Highs will drop below normal into the low 80s over the weekend! - Devan Masciulli, KSL Weather 8.27.26
