With building high pressure we'll see a warming trend in temperatures for most locations today. However, strengthening inversions will limit warming in northern Utah valleys and will bring declining air quality and reduced visibility. Here's today's temperature forecast. #utwx
Today the SLCo EM team supported our county government partners in a Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP) discussion based exercise. Testing and training to our various plans help us be better prepared to respond & collaborate in an emergency & increase our resiliency.
High pressure will bring inversion conditions to N Utah valleys through Friday. Thankfully, inversions will be short lived as a series of storm systems move through late Friday through early next week. @UtahDEQ has the latest air quality info at http://air.utah.gov. #utwx
