Tue, Mar 17 - High pressure system building

High: 58°F Low: 31°F We have entered into the High Pressure ridge. Most of yesterday morning began with spectacularly cloudy skies, so we had a slow start to the warming. But it started to clear mid-morning and then it started to warm up and we ended up nearing 60°F. This morning, we are starting with clear skies and are gearing up for a hot day approaching 70°F.

As it does, it will bring warm, tropical air from the South as well as allow clear skies and solar heating to bring temperatures up into the 80's during the second half of the week. Previous record high temperatures are in the mid-70's, so we have an easy potential to break some records this week. ​

Thu, Sep 4 - Hurricane Lorena making landfall tomorrow - getting rain from it today

Yesterday was hot, following the pattern of the last few days. It was, however, a little more cloudy so it didn't get as hot as it could have been. Hurricane Lorena is expected to make landfall in Baja California tomorrow evening. This hurricane has already been feeding the Southwest U.S. with large amounts of Pacific water. This moist air is gradually moving to the North, bringing rain into our area. We are expecting rain in Southern Utah this morning, reaching the Sanpete Valley this afternoon. We will have good chances of rain and thunderstorms today, Friday, and Saturday. The storm will gradually clear, making way for another warm and sunny beginning to next week, though not as warm as it has been. High temperatures for the next week will be around 80*F.  Day Low (*F) High (*F) Precipitation Yesterday 51.6 90.6 0.00 Today 52.6 83 40% Tomorrow 51 83 30% For current conditions, visit the Snow College Weather Center .

With another 0.12" of rain falling yesterday, that brings our total rain for the last week to 0.64"! With all the humid and chilly air, a heavy fog formed over the bottom of the Sanpete valley this morning, but should clear out quickly. The pattern of rain is now tapering off. There is a chance for a little more rain this afternoon, but we will dry out through the weekend. Temperatures have definitely made it feel like falltime. However, this is just a temporary thing as the temperatures will rise again into the mid- to high-80's over the weekend as we dry out. There is a low pressure forming off the west coast. Previously, it looked like it would bring more humid air into our area next week. The most recent forecasts show the low pressure system forming further to the north, thus leaving us unaffected. Although we will still get some humid air and potential for rain from the Southwest Monsoon, the chances of rain next week have dropped significantly. Day Low (*F) H...
