The National Weather Service predicts high temperatures in northern Utah will range into the upper-40s on Thursday, down about 10 degrees from Wednesday’s forecast. Rain, which was to begin in earnest Wednesday night, was expected to hit the region periodically through Thursday as well.
Southern Utahns were looking for highs in low- to mid-60s on Thursday, about 5 degrees cooler than Wednesday’s predictions. However, while increasing cloud cover was expected, little rainfall was predicted in Utah’s Dixie.
The Utah Avalanche Center rated the risk for dangerous mountain slope snow slides at "low" going into the latter part of the week.
The Utah Division of Air Quality predicted "Green," or healthy breathability conditions for the entire state.
