The National Weather Service says an elongated ridge axis will flatten, and an "H7" flow will increase and trend southwesterly across the eastern Great Basin. Oh, and throw in a new subsidence aloft; there's your forecast, Utah.

What in the name of all that's wholly meteorological?!?

Whoa, there. Relax. Forecasters assure us all that jargon comes down to Utah's Thursday, like Wednesday, being dry and near autumn norms. Temperatures along the Wasatch Front will be highs in the 70s and overnight lows in the 50s, while southern Utah will see 80s and upper 50s, respectively.

Dr. Seuss put it this way: "The storm starts, when the drops start dropping. When the drops stop dropping then the storm starts stopping."

In a nutshell? It's going to beautiful out there.

You can take a hike, ride a bike, or take a trip to the mountains, camera in hand, looking for fall colors to capture. While you do that, the air you breathe will be invigorating, too: the Utah Division of Air Quality rates it as "green," or healthy, right into the weekend.

The Intermountain Allergy and Asthma website listed on sagebrush as "very high," mold as "high," and other allergens "low" on its pollen index as of Wednesday.

After all, "You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And you are the one who'll decide where to go."
