As I type this on Sunday afternoon (June 1), the temperature at the Salt Lake City International Airport is about 92°F at 2 PM. The record for the day is 94°F, so we have a solid shot at tying or eclipsing that. A high of 94 is also consistent with the average high for July 11, so we're getting a too early taste of mid summer.
Fortunately a weak cold front is coming through tomorrow morning. Tomorrow afternoon will be more pleasant than today with cooler, drier, northwesterly flow.
Right now it's looking like the frontal passage will probably be a dry one in Salt Lake. The NWS forecasts give us the not quite zero possibility of a shower or thunderstorm: "A slight chance of showers and thunderstorms before midnight, then a slight chance of showers between midnight and 3am."
Hopefully we see something, although my expectations are for nothing. At least it will be cooler tomorrow.
I have a good feeling about this summer.
