Pleasant conditions before cooler & soggier weather moves in

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Happy first Wednesday of Autumn, Utah! Today will feature more fantastic outdoor weather and temperatures slightly warmer than yesterday. Sunny weather sticks around and temperatures will top out in the upper 70s to low 80s for most and low 90s for hot spots like St. George. By Thursday the north will still be sunny and in the mid 80s, but southwest Utah should start seeing a shift in the weather pattern.

Moisture begins streaming into the southwest on Thursday as a low pressure system pulls in Pacific moisture off the coast of southern California. Southwest Utah could see a few isolated showers toward the late afternoon and evening. The low pressure system meanders over southern California which will continue pumping moisture and cooler, but mild temperatures through Arizona and into southern Utah through the week. 

By the weekend, the system begins to lift north which will bring a higher chance of precipitation to southern Utah and increasing moisture to the north. While it is still far out to pinpoint the timing and intensity, northern Utah should start seeing active weather by Sunday evening.
