Passing cold front allows for some isolated moisture and cooler Tuesday temperatures

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Happy Tuesday, Utah! A passing cold front overnight opened the door for Northwest flow and slightly cooler temperatures for our Tuesday. The upper-level low tracking east north of Utah begins to open up and eject east which will keep some active skies and allow for a few scattered showers and storms across northern UT and southwest WY this morning, including along the Wasatch Front, Uintas, and SW Wyoming. While we will temporarily quiet for the afternoon, a trailing disturbance in the evening will allow for some additional storms in NE Utah. We will see storms development over the Uintas and basin, but isolated storms could reach as far south over Castle Country and Grand County. In the wake of the cold front, we will see slightly cooler daytime highs with temperatures in the mid to upper 70s along the Wasatch Front and highs jumping into the mid 90s for SW Utah.

High pressure builds with drier conditions through the end of the 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.
