Residents of Salt Lake City can look forward to a stretch of agreeable weather conditions leading up to Memorial Day weekend, as per the latest update from the National Weather Service (NWS). As of their last update, Salt Lake City's skies remained mostly cloudy with temperatures hovering around 48°F. There’s a noted humidity sitting at 49% and a southeast wind flowing at a gentle 11 MPH. The forecast, however, promises a turn towards sunnier days with temperatures expected to steadily rise over the coming week.
In their detailed forecast, which, despite nearing the 70-degree mark today, will see southeast winds shifting west in the afternoon, the NWS anticipates a transition to mostly sunny skies. While the dewpoint stands at a brisk 30°F, it won't dampen the gradually warming trend. Tonight's weather appears to be mostly clear, with low temps dipping to around 47 degrees, while the northwest wind takes a pause, calming down by evening, according to the National Weather Service.
The upward momentum in temperatures will continue through Wednesday, as NWS predicts sunny skies and a comfortable high near 73 degrees. The tranquility extends into Thursday and Friday, with highs soaring to the low 80s, under predominantly sunny conditions. The evening temperatures are expected to be stable, with lows hovering in the mid-50s.
Looking ahead to the weekend, Saturday holds a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms after noon, seemingly placing a minor hiccup in an otherwise unblemished forecast. Despite the potential for wet weather, the NWS suggests that it will be mostly sunny with highs in the mid-70s. Following the slight disturbance, Sunday and Memorial Day are projected to be sunny with highs once again approaching the 80-degree mark.
