SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Happy Wednesday, Utah! We are halfway through the workweek. It’s going to be a bea-Utah-ful day across the state with mostly sunny skies as temperatures warm to near or slightly above average.

That will mean most outside of the high terrain reach the 50s and 60s and several spots down south hit or exceed the 70-degree mark! By tonight, it’s clear skies with lows similar to what we had last night.

The warmup we’re on will ramp up to close the workweek with the introduction of a southerly wind. Daytime highs tomorrow will run about five to 10 degrees above average, which will be good enough to see the Wasatch Front reach the low 70s while Park City climbs in the 50s.

It’s also likely we see our first 80s of the year down in St. George. Friday will likely be the warmest day this week as the southerly flow cranks up.

Highs will be about 10 to 15 degrees above average and, in some cases, could be closer to 20 degrees above average! Salt Lake could sneak into the upper 70s while St. George climbs into the mid 80s.

Saturday won’t bring many changes from what we get on Friday — however, it will be a fraction cooler as high pressure begins to move away. From Sunday into next week, we’ll be entering a more active pattern.

Our next storm will approach from the west and will bring a chance of isolated showers both Sunday and Monday with highs easing down by about 10 to 15 degrees in most locations compared to what we get on Friday.

Even as that storm clears, a trailing storm dropping in from the northwest could bring even cooler temperatures and a better chance of wet weather Tuesday into midweek. We’ll continue to fine the tune the forecast as we get closer. Stay tuned!
