Moisture will gradually increase over the area through at least Saturday, bringing the potential for showers and thunderstorms, particularly across southern Utah. .DISCUSSION...High pressure remains in place over Utah this morning, but two different troughs will provide ingredients for critical fire weather conditions during the afternoon and evening. A Pacific trough moving into the Great Basin will bring increasing southwest winds, particularly over southern Utah, that will combine with the already hot and dry conditions to increase fire danger. Meanwhile, a Pacific Northwest trough tracking north of the area will provide instability for increasing coverage of showers and thunderstorms, particularly over northern portions of the area, with high based moisture moving into the state in the southerly flow. Given how dry the airmass has been, thunderstorms that develop today will be accompanied with little if any precipitation, bringing the threat of gusty microburst winds and dry lightning. Red Flag Warnings are in effect this afternoon and evening to cover these sundry threats. The northern system will bring a dry cold front into northern Utah tonight, bringing temperatures back closer to near seasonal normals for Wednesday afternoon, with conditions staying similarly dry to yesterday. Moisture will then steadily increase over the area Thursday into at least the first half of the weekend, bringing increasing relative humidity values and also an increasing potential of showers and thunderstorms, particularly for southern Utah. As the week goes on, these storms will increasingly be capable of producing wetting rainfall. Some drying is expected by early next week. ***Thunderstorms imply strong, gusty and erratic winds*** ***All winds are 20 foot, 10-minute averages*** UTZ478-160030- Salt Lake Desert- 328 AM MDT Tue Jul 15 2025 ...RED FLAG WARNING IN EFFECT FROM NOON TODAY TO 9 PM MDT THIS EVENING... .TODAY...
