Smoke Management Forecast
National Weather Service Salt Lake City Utah
430 AM MDT Sat May 18 2024......Cheng

.DISCUSSION...Unsettled weather conditions expected today as a
stalled frontal boundary begins to lift back north across central
and southern Utah. The next storm system will then begin to carve
into the area, bringing another cold front with cooler and somewhat
more moist conditions to Utah tomorrow into Monday. These unsettled
weather conditions will result in generally good to excellent mixing
conditions, although pockets of near 500 clearing index will be
possible across portions of northern and west-central Utah within
the cooler airmass behind the cold front.
