April 30, 2025 - Trough from the North

-

Discussion

The low pressure system we have been dealing with the last couple of days has moved on to the East. As a result, we enjoyed much warmer temperatures and clearer skies tomorrow. Similar conditions will exist for today.

However, a trough is digging down from the North. It won't cover Central Utah, but we will be grazed by it as it quickly passes by. A ridge will then form over the Western U.S., bringing higher temperatures into the area for the weekend.

Another low pressure system is forming of the West Coast, though. This will bring high winds into our area Sunday with rain and cooler temperatures Sunday evening or Monday morning. The system's strength will die quickly, but the remnants will linger through the week, bringing cloudy skies and moderate temperatures, along with occasional chances for light showers.

Forecast

  • Today: 63*F
    • Increasing clouds in the afternoon and a breeze from the west
    • Good chance of rain in the afternoon
  • Tonight: 33*F
    • Partly cloudy through the night but cooler
    • Good chance of rain in the early evening, less as we approach morning
  • Tomorrow: 65*F
    • Similar conditions as today, but starting to clear and warm

February 24 - Clearer skies today

Temperatures have been cool over the last couple of days. The winter system that hit us a couple of days ago has moved to the East. Lingering clouds will hang around today, however, with slight chances of snow flurries throughout the day.

A low pressure is forming over the west coast, drawing humid air into our region. We can expect clouds and slight chances of precipitation through the weekend, primarily Sunday afternoon. Skies will remain cloudy after that for a couple days until yet another storm system arrives on Tuesday.

May 6, 2025 - Lots of rain overnight - Continuing clouds, not as much rain coming

Discussion We are still in the heart of the low pressure system, and we have felt it. Between last night and this morning, we have had 0.46” of rain! Skies are beginning to clear, but we will continue to have some heavy clouds and off-and-on showers today and tomorrow until they clear completely by Thursday. As the skies clear, a high pressure ridge will start to form. By Thursday, we should be feeling its effects with much warmer temperatures and clear skies. Temperatures will reach into the 70’s by Thursday and possibly as high as 80*F over the weekend. We are looking at another cold front sometime in the middle of next week.
