Areas of showers and storms will continue north across Utah

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — An area of high pressure to our east will continue to bring moisture into the Beehive state over the next several days. This will bring widespread rain chances to the state along with decreasing temperatures.

Happy Tuesday, Utah! A disturbance is working up from southern Utah through northern Utah, bringing widespread showers & a few storms to the state. The more widespread coverage and intensity of these showers and storms could lead to a slightly higher chance for flash flooding across parts of Utah.

A Flood Watch has been issued for most of southern and central Utah through late Tuesday evening. High temperatures will remain well-below average due to the extra clouds and rain chances. Highs will only be in the low to mid 80s for northern Utah, with mid to upper 80s for southern Utah!

Another disturbance will rotate across northern Utah on Wednesday, keeping fairly high rain chances in the forecast. The best chance for rain on Wednesday will be for areas along and north of I-80, but a few showers could work further south. Still, plan for showers & storms for any outside plans you may have for your Wednesday afternoon. Daytime highs will be below average with highs in the lower 80s for northern Utah, and lower 90s for southern Utah.

Later this week, rain chances will begin to dwindle as we lose our monsoon flow. Isolated showers and storms will remain possible through Friday, but we’re not expecting nearly the coverage or intensity of the early to midweek activity. Due to the drier conditions and more sunshine, temperatures will begin to warm near normal for the end of the week, and moving into the weekend.
