Well, it’s a bit of a mixed bag in Utah today. We’ve got heavy cloud cover here in Northern Utah and we’re calling for scattered showers throughout the day, with a day-time high of forty-five degrees. Now, if we move down to the south of the state, we can see that a cold front is moving in. We can expect clear skies, but it will be quite cold, with temperatures hovering around the thirty degree mark.
