050 NZUS99 KGJT 041235 SYNGJT For eastern Utah and western Colorado, here is the latest weather synopsis Some isolated showers may linger along the western Colorado mountains near the Continental Divide this morning as the latest weather system moves out but otherwise should clear out by afternoon with mostly sunny skies and slightly cooler temperatures with highs near to a few degrees above normal. The heat is on as we start heating up through the coming week as high pressure builds over the region. Highs Thursday through Saturday look to reach triple digits in the lower desert valleys for the first time this year with highs 10 to 15 degrees above normal. Moisture potentially returns this weekend into early next week with storm coverage increasing mainly over the high terrain and continued warm temperatures.
