It's a breezy, warm midweek forecast for Utah, the kind of dying burst of summer weather that actor, author and musician Henry Rollins knows well.
September, he says, is when we "wander through the warm winds of summer's wreckage. We will welcome summer's ghost."
Along the Wasatch Front, that meteorological specter haunts partly cloudy horizons, where gradually dying sunshine rides winds of 15-25 mph and daytime temperatures in the upper-80s to low-90s both Wednesday and Thursday.
Southern Utahns, too, see the portents hinting at the coming autumn. Gone are the sweltering, triple-digit days of August, reluctantly retreating before daytime highs in the low- to mid-90s and afternoon winds of 10-20 mph.
The Utah Division of Air Quality graded air quality as "green," or healthy, into the coming weekend for all areas of the state.
However, the Intermountain Allergy & Asthma website listed chenopods, ragweed and sagebrush at "very high" levels on its pollen index as of Wednesday, while mold got a "high" grade and grass came in at "low."
