After possible record heat, Utah will cool down considerably. But will it rain on the Utes and the Cougars?

It’s going to be hot in Salt Lake City on Tuesday — an all-time record could be tied — but temperatures are expected to fall starting Wednesday. And there’s at least a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms that could affect both the University of Utah’s football game on Thursday night and BYU’s home opener on Saturday night.

The National Weather Service is forecasting a high of 99 in Salt Lake City on Tuesday, which would tie the record for Aug. 29 set in 2017 — 11 degrees higher than average for this time of year.

However, a “dry but fairly potent” cold front is expected to move across northern Utah on Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, “bringing temperatures back to near normal for this time of year.”

The forecast calls for highs of 87 on Wednesday; 92 on Thursday; 86 on Friday; 85 on Saturday; and 81 on Sunday. The forecast high for Labor Day is just 75 — about 10 degrees below normal and 27 degrees colder than a year ago, when the thermometer topped out at 102, a record for Sept. 4.

After sunny skies during the day on Thursday, there’s a slight chance — 20% — of rain and thunderstorms on Thursday night in Salt Lake City. The Utah Utes will host the Florida Gators that evening, with kickoff scheduled for 6 p.m.

The slight chance of rain and thunderstorms continues Friday-Monday in Salt Lake City.

The forecast for the next few days in Provo is similar. On Saturday, according to the National Weather Service, there’s a slight chance of showers early in the day, then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after noon and continuing Saturday night. After a high of 82, temperatures will fall to the low 60s overnight.

The BYU Cougars host the Sam Houston Bearkats that evening, with kickoff scheduled for 8:15 p.m.

Temperatures are also expected to fall in southern Utah, and there could be some rain. In St. George, the forecast highs are 105 on Tuesday; 104 on Wednesday; 98 on Thursday; 88 on Friday; 86 on Saturday and Sunday; and 84 on Monday. There’a a 20-30% chance of showers and thunderstorms on Thursday, rising to 60% on Friday. There’s a slight chance of more rain on Saturday and Sunday, with sunny skies in the forecast for Monday.

Quarterback Michael Penix Jr. sets the tone for Washington Huskies’ run to the college football title game

New Orleans • The Sugar Bowl was a little more than 24 hours away, and sixth-year Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr. called a players-only meeting as their moment drew near. He walked to the front of the room on two surgically repaired knees along with edge rusher Edefuan Ulofoshio and delivered a message. The new year was five hours away. Bourbon Street was a short walk away. Families flooded into town. Texas fans, much to Washington’s chagrin, were all over the Huskies’ team hotel, too. This was their time to lock in and focus. They needed to block out distractions, though the midnight fireworks downtown made it hard to get to sleep early. He reminded them they’d been working their whole lives for an opportunity like the one they’d earned. They’d won their past nine games by 10 or fewer points and needed second-half comebacks to win three of them. All of it had carried them to this moment. He told them to be ready. No one was more ready than Penix himself, who connect...
