A storm system will scrape by northern Utah on Monday, bringing a round of strong winds to a large majority of Utah and southwest Wyoming during the afternoon hours. Strong sustained northerly winds of 15 to 20 miles per hour are anticipated, with gusts reaching up to 40 miles per hour. A Wind Advisory has been issued for Castle Country, the San Rafael Swell, and western Uinta Basin. Wind gusts of up to 50 miles per hour will be possible in these areas. Strong crosswinds on east-west oriented roadways may create difficult driving conditions, especially for high profile vehicles. Areas of blowing dust may also arise and bring reductions in visibility, contributing to more hazardous driving conditions. Additionally, with low afternoon relative humidity values across southern Utah combined with the high wind speeds, critical fire weather conditions are expected during the afternoon hours on Monday. A Red Flag Warning has been issued for much of southern Utah from noon to 9PM Monday.
