Smoke Management Forecast
National Weather Service Salt Lake City Utah
338 AM MDT Tue Oct 8 2024......Seaman

.DISCUSSION...An unseasonably warm and dry airmass will remain
across the region through the remainder of the week. Transport winds
will remain lighter across northern Utah today which will limit
mixing somewhat, while good to excellent mixing can be expected
across most central and southern Utah airsheds. Increased transport
winds will result in good to excellent mixing across all air sheds
Wednesday through Friday, with the exception of air shed 1 where
mixing will likely remain limited each day.
