Warmer temps Friday afternoon ahead of weekend storms
SALT LAKE CITY () — Happy Friday, Utah! A weak disturbance is moving through on Friday, leading to mostly cloudy skies. Look for a mix of clouds and sunshine Friday afternoon. Moisture still lingering across the state could still produce a few pop-up showers across Utah. Temperatures will warm into the upper 60s across the Wasatch Front and low to mid-80s for SW Utah. Saturday will feature increasing clouds and breezy conditions as our next storm system approaches the state. This system will bring increasing chances for showers and rumbles, Saturday afternoon through Sunday and Monday, along with another round of cooler temperatures! Some areas may pick up between 1.00-2.00″ of rain across northern Utah through Tuesday! Upper-level wind energy could lead to a chance for an isolated strong to severe storm with wind gusts over 60 mph and small hail. This system will also bring dropping snow levels, so our mountains could be in line for some late-season snowfall this weekend. The best chances for this will be above 7,000-7500 FT, where several inches will be possible. The winds will be gusty out of the southwest on Saturday, especially across SE Utah where we have a Red Flag Warning in effect for Saturday afternoon. This means no outside burning across this area. Any fires that get going would likely spread quickly between the gusty winds and low humidity.
