Salt Lake City, UT – Residents should prepare for widespread haze continuing into Friday morning, with sunny skies breaking through later in the day. Temperatures are expected to remain mild, but cooler weather is approaching for the weekend.
According to the National Weather Service, haze will dominate Salt Lake City’s skies through early Friday, keeping visibility low during the morning commute. The high temperature will reach 41°F by the afternoon, with calm winds providing little relief from air quality concerns. Officials urge sensitive groups, including children and the elderly, to avoid prolonged outdoor exposure during hazy periods.
Looking ahead, a slight chance of snow begins late Friday night, with temperatures dropping to a low of 22°F. A 30% chance of light snowfall continues into Saturday, primarily along elevated roadways, including parts of I-15. Accumulation is expected to remain minimal, with less than an inch forecasted. Despite the potential for snow, Saturday will see highs near 31°F under mostly cloudy skies.
Sunday offers some relief with partly sunny skies and a high of 31°F, though nighttime temperatures will plummet to around 12°F. As Martin Luther King Jr. Day approaches on Monday, clear and sunny conditions are expected, though highs will struggle to reach 26°F.
Drivers should remain vigilant for reduced visibility and icy patches, especially during late-night hours when temperatures drop. Stay updated with local forecasts and plan weekend outdoor activities around potential weather shifts.
