When will the fog and inversion lift from the Salt Lake Valley?
The National Weather Service says it should be gone today.
(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) Fog and inversion conditions in Salt Lake City trap small particle pollutants as air quality deteriorates on Saturday, Dec. 7, 2024.
If you drove in the Salt Lake Valley Saturday morning, you probably felt like you were starring in a 1980s horror film driving through the dense fog.
Since Friday, dense fog has blanketed Salt Lake City. However, the fog is set to lift after Sunday morning, according to the National Weather Service.
Adelaide Nordfelt, a reservation specialist at the Salt Lake City International Airport, has driven through the fog these last couple of mornings.
“I couldn’t see 100 feet in front of me sometimes when driving 215 down the freeway to get to work. So, it was scary, especially with traffic,” Nordfelt said. “Everyone is trying to get to work so you’re just trying to stay safe out there.”
