Salt Lake City, Utah – Warm fall sunshine will dominate Utah this week, with temperatures climbing into the 80s and skies staying clear. Drivers on I-15 and commuters across the Salt Lake Valley should prepare for hot afternoons, cool evenings, and little relief until the weekend. Staying hydrated and limiting strenuous outdoor work during peak afternoon heat is strongly advised.
According to the National Weather Service in Salt Lake City, highs will reach near 84 degrees on Thursday, the warmest day of the week. Winds remain light, shifting gradually from northwest to southeast. Nights cool into the 50s, offering some relief but still leaving road surfaces warm for late-day traffic.
By Friday, highs hold in the low 80s before dipping slightly Sunday, when partly cloudy skies and highs in the lower 80s suggest a change ahead. Monday may bring a slight chance of showers and storms, a sign of fall’s cooler transition pushing into northern Utah.
The stretch of warm weather means air conditioning use stays high, and sensitive groups should take care during peak heating hours. Outdoor events and late-September gatherings will see dry, sunny skies with only minor breeze impacts. For those heading into mountain areas, conditions remain stable with no significant storm activity expected until next week.
Expect updates as conditions evolve, especially if Monday’s storm chance strengthens.
