Hot and stormy weather today!

Increasing moisture from the south will bring a better chance of showers and thunderstorms along the Wasatch Frong. A few of the storms in the far north and far west could be mostly dry and bring strong, gusty winds.

The best chance of heavy rain is forecast for eastern Utah, but keep in mind that any storm could bring strong winds and heavy rain. Those with outdoor plans on Wednesday should make sure they have shelter nearby.

Thunderstorms are likely again Thursday, but dry air will begin to move in on Friday and storms will taper off before what looks like a sunny and hot holiday weekend ahead.
