The Salt Lake City arm of the National Weather Service has provided the latest forecast for the region, and it's looking like a clear, albeit chilly, stretch ahead. As of their last update, the weather in Salt Lake City is marked by a mostly cloudy sky, with temperatures hovering around a brisk 21°F. The humidity remains relatively high at 73%, with a gentle breeze coming from the south at 6 MPH. For those venturing outdoors, the wind chill factor might make it feel as cold as 13°F, so wrapping up warm is advisable.
Moving through the day, the NWS forecasts a pleasant change as they expect the sky to clear up to be mostly sunny, with temperatures rising to a modest high near 36°F. Calm winds are predicted to pick up slightly, shifting northwest at 5 to 7 mph in the afternoon. As the evening draws in, the skies should remain clear, with temperatures dipping to a low around 21°F. The winds will carry on, maintaining a north-northwest direction around 6 mph, but will become more gentle as the night progresses.

The light south winds will persist, staying steady at around 6 mph. Come Monday night, the skies are slated to fill with light clouds, and temperatures will fall to a low around 28°F, while the winds settle down, becoming calm by evening.
Prospects for Tuesday and the following few days are equally bright and sunny, with daytime highs pushing towards the upper 40s; specifically, the NWS anticipates a high near 48°F on Tuesday. Each night, the city will likely experience partly cloudy skies, with lows sitting consistently around 28-29°F, save for Friday night, when they could reach 32°F.
