Utah is experiencing a stretch of temperatures significantly above normal, with highs expected to be 15 to 20 degrees warmer than the average through at least Tuesday. This unusual warmth continues despite it being December. A few weak weather systems are anticipated to move through northern Utah and southwest Wyoming from Sunday into Monday, bringing light rain in the valleys and snow at higher elevations, primarily near the Utah-Idaho border. Snow levels are expected to rise unusually high, from around 7,000-8,000 feet on Sunday morning to approximately 9,500 feet by the afternoon. This will limit snow impacts to the highest peaks, and overall precipitation amounts are expected to be light, causing no significant travel concerns. By Tuesday, most areas will dry out as this moisture shifts north, providing a brief respite from precipitation. Breezy conditions are expected to persist through Tuesday, especially in western Utah, with wind gusts reaching 25-35 mph. While these winds are not extreme, they may be strong enough to shift outdoor furniture and impact high-profile vehicles. Looking ahead to the middle of the week, a stronger Pacific storm system is forecasted to arrive between Wednesday and Friday. This system will tap into an atmospheric river, resulting in widespread rain in the valleys and mountain snow; however, snow levels are expected to remain high due to the warm nature of the storm. Winds are also anticipated to increase, becoming stronger and more widespread, particularly on Wednesday. Temperatures will continue to be mild through Thursday before experiencing a slight cooldown on Friday, although temperatures will still remain above normal. Notably, Salt Lake City currently has no measurable snowfall, inching closer to the record for the latest first measurable snow, which stands at January 2nd. While winter may eventually arrive, it appears to be delayed and not following the expected patterns.
