Clouds will linger over Happy Valley
throughout much of today due to a low pressure system
that is currently tracking through southeastern Canada.
Skies will clear tonight as high pressure builds across
much of the eastern United States, which will provide for
mostly sunny conditions tomorrow. This pleasant weather
will be short-lived, however, as a storm approaching from
the west will bring clouds and the chance of snow back
into the forecast on Friday. -- Prepared by the Campus Weather Service

Highlight
Although gusty conditions have forced the delay of some Winter Olympic events over the past few days, Utah is no stranger to high winds. On this day in weather history in 1988, areas in the Wasatch mountains reported gusts of over 106 miles per hour. Aside from closing down lifts at nearby ski resorts, the stiff winds contributed to a 40 car pile-up on nearby Interstate 15.
