Deseret News | Utah's fickle weather sets records
This fickle weather has set some records recently, too. On Monday, Alta and Brigham City both logged record-low maximum temperatures for the day, at 37 and 40 degrees respectively, breaking records decades old.

The day prior — Aug. 17 — Alta, Cedar City and Spanish Fork were also all colder that morning than ever recorded before, with the mercury only reaching the mid- to low 40s.

Some mountain valley locations have already hit freezing temperatures. For example, Coalville was just 32 degrees Sunday morning. There were also 2 inches of snow in the Uinta Mountains last Saturday morning and some of the new white stuff at the top of Snowbird.
