TL;DR:

Sunny skies for today with temperatures in the upper teens and low twenties. Chances of precipitation are likely starting Wednesday afternoon and throughout the week.


Nowcast:


Beautiful day today with sunny skies and max temperatures in the upper teens and low twenties. A low breeze will be felt at the base of the mountains with a strong breeze at the peaks coming from the west. Wonderful day to be enjoyed!


Short term:


Currently, we are under a high-pressure system, but that will soon change Wednesday afternoon as a trough enters through northern Utah. This will bring high chances of precipitation. Possibility of precipitation totals of around 0.2 - 1 inches and snow totals of 5-10 inches.


Long term:


As this trough progresses through the state, another short wave trough from the west makes its landfall Friday afternoon. Precipitation is likely from Wednesday afternoon until Monday.
