Lehi's Summer Sizzle: Temps, Air Quality, and Porsche Unveil on the Eve of the Fourth


Listen Later

Listeners in Lehi, Utah, what a day it has been. Thursday, July third brought a classic taste of Utah summer, with temperatures peaking in the mid to upper eighties, skies shifting between partly cloudy and bright sun, and a few gusty breezes in the afternoon. The morning saw a bit of cloud cover, but by midday, most of the gray had given way to sun. According to the Provo area forecast, highs hovered around eighty-seven degrees, just cool enough to enjoy an afternoon walk before the fireworks and festivities ramp up this holiday weekend.

For those heading outdoors or prepping for weekend grilling, the air quality in Lehi remained good throughout the day, keeping the haze at bay and making it a safe bet for everyone, including sensitive groups. Local air monitoring sites reported PM2.5 levels well within the healthy range, so breathing easy was no problem today.

Now, allergy sufferers might have noticed a tickle thanks to moderate pollen levels in the region. According to Pollen.com, grass and weed pollens were present but not yet at those peak July levels, so with a little extra antihistamine, most listeners could still make the most of local parks and trails.

Looking at high school sports, summer break means official matches are on pause, but several teams squeezed in morning workouts before the sun hit its stride. Coaches at Lehi High applauded athletes for beating the heat and keeping the Pioneer spirit alive even during the offseason.

Those hunting for something new and shiny in the driveway might have caught the buzz at Porsche Lehi, where the all-new Panamera 4 arrived just in time for some summer cruising. A few lucky test drivers took the model for a spin on Digital Drive, drawing plenty of curious glances as they passed through downtown.

One last heads up: the National Weather Service issued a Red Flag Warning for Utah starting this evening, with low humidity and breezy conditions raising fire concerns heading into the holiday. Officials urge everyone to be extra cautious with fireworks and outdoor flames as the Fourth of July celebrations get underway.
