Heatwave settles in across Utah promising a classic summer feeling
SALT LAKE CITY () – Happy Monday, Utah! It's shaping up to be a hot start to the week across Utah and as high pressure settles in overhead. Bottom Line?! Early summer heatwave settles in with a few afternoon thunderstorms Temperatures are already running above normal, and you can expect things to heat up even more heading into midweek. We're talking sunshine, very warm afternoons, and that classic summer feel, especially across northern Utah, where temps will rise a few more degrees today. Daytime highs will climb to around 90 degrees along the Wasatch Front, and triple-digit heat for St. George. That said, it's not completely dry out there. There's still some lingering moisture hanging around, and that means we can't rule out a few afternoon showers and thunderstorms, especially over the higher terrain. These storms won't be widespread, but they'll be the kind that bubble up with daytime heating, toss out a few gusty outflow winds, and then fizzle once the sun starts to dip. By midweek, the ridge remains in control, but a weak low nearby could stir up a bit more action in the skies. Look for another round of high-based storms that might stretch beyond the mountains and drift into the surrounding valleys late Tuesday and Wednesday. Again, they won't bring much rain…but they could kick up some wind. Looking beyond midweek, things really dry out. A broader pattern shift will usher in hot and breezy southwesterly flow across the region, especially from Thursday into the weekend. That means we'll need to keep a close watch on fire danger—conditions are looking ripe for critical fire weather, especially in central and southern Utah.

Another stormy workweek for Acadiana
Scattered showers and storms are moving through Acadiana this Monday morning but should quickly come to an end by 7:00 am. There is a low risk for severe weather as a couple storms could produce damaging winds or an isolated tornado. Another round of scattered rain is possible during the afternoon if the atmosphere can recover and destabilize enough. Otherwise, the weather today will be hot, muggy, and breezy with highs in the lower 90s. The stormy pattern continues through the Father's Day Weekend. Heavy rains could lead to localized flash flooding. The severe threat should remain low each day too. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
