Sunshine and drier air returns to the Beehive State Sunday

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Happy Sunday, Utah! We’re wrapping up the weekend with plenty of sunshine and dry conditions across the region. Another ridge of high pressure builds over the region, leading to dry weather conditions for our Sunday. Daytime highs will warm back into the low 80s across northern Utah, with highs in the lower 90s for SW Utah Sunday afternoon.  

A weak disturbance will approach northern Utah on Monday, bringing an isolated thunderstorm or two to the region. The best chance for picking up an isolated shower or storm will be across portions of Cache Valley, the Ogden Valley, Uintas, and SW Wyoming. We may see a stray shower drop as far south as portions of the Wasatch Front Monday afternoon. High temperatures will climb into the upper 70s for northern Utah, and in the low to mid 90s for SW Utah. The southern portions of the state will stick with plenty of sunshine to kick off the new week.

An isolated shower will be possible over the far NE mountains on Tuesday, but most of the state will once again begin to dry out. Highs will be near 80 along the Wasatch Front and highs will jump into the mid 90s for SW Utah.

Sunshine and warmer weather will be the main theme for the middle and end of next week. Highs will warm into the mid to upper 90s for SW Utah, and in the mid 80s for northern Utah.

Changes may begin to develop by this weekend as the data indicates a chance for increasing moisture once again. The best location for this looks to be across southern Utah on Friday, increasing further north through Saturday.

The bottom line? A pesky upper-level low will continue to move away from Utah today, leading to sunshine, drier air, and slightly warmer temperatures.
