Cold Pool Fragments

I may have spoken a little too quickly about the demise of the cold pool.  It appears there still are a few cold-pool fragments persisting around the area.  For example, check out the observations near Lehi, Point of the Mountain, Bluffdale, and Riverton where temperatures range from 39-47F.

Check out the temperature variability at the glider port near point of the mountain, which suggests it sits right near the top of the cold-air pool with the cold air intermittently spilling over the observing site.

Finally, haze and smog within the cold-pool fragment can be seen when looking south from the Avenues.  In particular, check out the visibility obscuration in the saddle of the Traverse Mountains.
