High-pressure system to create prime conditions for northern Utah inversions this week

If you’ve looked outside and noticed the hazy air, be forewarned that the smog is going to get even worse this week.

According to the National Weather Service, a building high-pressure system will create the perfect conditions necessary for lung-irritating inversions to happen through at least the middle of the week.

Air quality is likely to decrease as pollutants build up in the valleys of northern Utah, the weather service posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. Utahns may experience reduced visibility along with areas of low clouds, the weather service said.

Luckily, the inversions will probably weaken toward the end of the week as a storm system rolls in, but the weather service posted it was uncertain as to how well the storm would clear the air.

In the Salt Lake City area, the forecast looks partly cloudy and cold until Thursday, when clouds will gather more thickly. On Monday, the high is expected to be 32, with a low of 24 on Monday night. For the rest of the week, expect highs in the 30s and lows in the 20s.

For Monday, the air forecast in Salt Lake County is moderate, according to the Utah Department of Environmental Quality, with restrictions on burning solid fuel and open burning.

In the St. George area, the forecast is sunny for Monday and Tuesday, with highs in the 50s and lows in the high 20s to lower 30s. Wednesday and Thursday also look sunny, but there’s a chance of rain for those nights.

For Monday in Washington County, the air forecast is good, according to the DEQ, with no restrictions on burning.
