In Lehi, Utah, as of January 15, 2025, the city is buzzing with various updates and events that capture the essence of local life.

### Weather
The past 24 hours have seen a chilly but relatively calm weather pattern. According to the historical weather data, the temperature has been around 36.0°F, with a light breeze of 4.6 mph and overcast cloud cover at 7,000 feet. There has been no precipitation in the last hour, making it a dry and crisp day[2].

### Traffic and Maintenance
For commuters, the good news is that traffic volumes are fairly light, especially on I-15 through the Salt Lake Valley. However, there is some snow in the canyons, though it's not affecting the roads significantly. Train horns have been a frequent sound since October due to necessary maintenance to meet Federal Railroad Administration standards. Once the additional work is approved, more quiet zones will be restored from Salt Lake to Ogden[1].

### Environmental Concerns
At the state capital, a resolution by the Utah Inland Port Authority board is set to be voted on, which includes a coal mine in the Castle Country project. This has raised concerns among several environmental groups, including Utah citizens advocating for renewable energy[1].

### Pollen Count
For those with allergies, the pollen count in the area is currently low. The primary allergens in the region, such as mountain cedar, ragweed, and pine trees, are not at peak levels during this time of the year. This makes it a relatively comfortable period for outdoor activities[3].

### Air Quality
The air quality in Salt Lake County, which includes Lehi, is currently good. The PM 2.5 levels are at 11 µg/m3, and ozone levels are at 0.002 ppm, well within the healthy range. This is excellent news for residents and visitors alike, ensuring clean air for all outdoor activities[4].

While specific high school sports scores for the past 24 hours are not available, the overall atmosphere in Lehi remains vibrant and ready for the day's events. Whether you're commuting, enjoying the outdoors, or keeping an eye on local developments, Lehi is a city that continues to thrive and adapt to its changing environment.
