And this is KPCW. Good morning, I'm Leslie Thatcher. It's the KPCW Local News Hour. 42 degrees right now in Old Town Park City and are mostly sunny skies. Heber City reporting 36 degrees and on the phone with us from the ABC Forecast Center, it's meteorologist, Cedric Haynes. Good morning.
Happy Thursday, KPCW listeners. It's time for your forecast for the Wasatch back on this Thursday. It is another cold start out there. Bumble up with those temperatures down into the 20s, Don't worry, it's going to be a beautiful afternoon. We've got a big ridge of high pressure right on top of Utah.
That is going to allow for lots of dry air, which means temperatures heat up quickly. We're climbing to near 60 in Park City as we get into the afternoon hours.
That was the opening. The rest of the episode (49 min) is in the player: every word clickable, with translation, saved words and flashcards.
