Considered a high-altitude desert state, the heat in Utah is very dry making it more comfortable for most visitors than a humid climate. Summer nights remain cool and comfortable. Due to this unique combination of desert landscape and elevation, Utah is known for having “The Greatest Snow on Earth” in the winter months as the precipitation turns into a lighter snowfall and makes the snowpack softer and more ideal for ski conditions.
Some interesting weather facts:
