After a wild swing in temperatures earlier this week, Lehi woke up to a cool Wednesday, May 14th. Daytime highs are hovering around 55 degrees Fahrenheit, dipping as low as 41 overnight, with a persistent light rain and plenty of cloud cover across the valley. If you’re venturing outside, don’t forget a rain jacket and maybe some boots—puddles have started to collect on Main Street and around Vets Ballpark. The showers are expected to taper off by the evening, so there’s hope for a drier commute home tomorrow[1][2][3].
With rain in the air, Lehi’s pollen count finally gave allergy sufferers some relief, dropping from the high marks of last week to moderate levels today. Tree pollen remains the main culprit, but the damp weather has kept most irritants at bay. Air quality is holding steady in the moderate range—not perfect, but a definite improvement over last month’s dusty streak, especially with the breeze helping move the air along[3].
On the high school sports front, the Lehi Pioneers baseball squad delivered an electrifying win last night, edging out the Orem Tigers 5-4 with a walk-off single in the bottom of the seventh inning. Over at the soccer fields, Lehi’s varsity girls gave their all in an intense matchup against American Fork, but ultimately fell 2-1 after a late penalty kick[3].
Meanwhile, spring sports sign-ups are in full swing at the Lehi Legacy Center, and this rainy day is perfect for checking the community calendar or planning a post-school swim indoors. With so much precipitation, local gardeners are rejoicing—and if you’re looking for weekend plans, the forecast suggests drying skies and warmer temps by Friday, just in time for food trucks at Wines Park[1][2].
Whether you’re rallying behind the Pioneers, racing raindrops, or just savoring the fresh, clean mountain air, there’s never a dull day in Lehi. Stay dry, keep an umbrella handy, and don’t let the clouds get in the way of a great week.
