Spot Forecast for Buckley Draw...USFS
National Weather Service Salt Lake City UT
712 PM MDT Sat Aug 30 2025

Forecast is based on forecast start time of 2000 MDT on August 30.
If conditions become unrepresentative...contact the National Weather
Service.

.DISCUSSION...A dry and stable airmass will remain in place as a ridge
of high pressure continues to translate through overhead. This
will keep precipitation chances close to zero and support a
typical terrain driven wind pattern (up-terrain late morning to
evening, down-terrain late evening through the overnight hours).
Temperatures will gradually warm and humidity will trend downward
given the dry conditions into the start of next week.
Precipitation chances will increase slightly from the middle of
next week into the weekend as models continue to hint at some
modest return of moisture, though at this time widespread
precipitation and wetting rain chances do not appear likely.
