The year, day by day
Utah Lake Lehi works both ends of the calendar. Normal highs climb to 93°F by July 23 and hold at or above 90°F on 43 dates, then normal lows drop to freezing or below on 139 dates, bottoming at 19°F around January 7.
When the heat sits
Normal highs reach 90°F from July 3 through August 14, covering 43 dates. The broader mild season, normal highs of 70°F or more, runs May 14 to October 7.
This counts calendar dates whose 1991–2020 normal high reaches 90°F. It is a smaller number than the 90°F+ day counts in the monthly table above, which measure how often the threshold was actually crossed in a typical year. A date can average 88°F and still exceed 90°F in half of all years.
The freezing stretch
The normal low stays at or below 32°F into March 16, then returns to freezing around October 30, covering 139 dates in all.
Derived from the normal daily minimum. This is a different measure from the 50%-probability frost dates shown elsewhere on this page, which come from NOAA’s frost product.
Where the wet dates fall
The likeliest wet date is April 17, when 29% of years recorded at least a hundredth of an inch. The driest is June 22 at 11%. Summed across the calendar, that is about 78 wet dates a year.
The widest day
July 1 carries the biggest normal gap between afternoon and dawn, 35°F between the normal high and the normal low.

Daily temperature swings run wider than most of the country, peaking near 35°F between the normal high and low.

Utah Lake Lehi spreads its precipitation across the year
Neither half of the year dominates here: June through August take 17% of the annual total and December through February 26%, with neither reaching the 35% that would mark a distinct wet season. Utah Lake Lehi has no dry season to plan around, though it does carry a wide 47.1°F gap between its warmest and coldest month.
The gap between the wettest and driest month still matters: April averages 1.6" and June 0.6". The three wettest months together take 33% of the year, against the 25% a perfectly flat distribution would give them.
Shares are computed from this station's own 1991-2020 monthly precipitation normals. "Spread across the year" means neither the June-August nor the December-February share reaches 35%; it describes an average year, not the variability of any single one.
Utah Lake Lehi is dry, and what does fall arrives gently
Only about 78 days a year record measurable precipitation here, 21% of the calendar, and they carry 13.1" between them. At roughly 0.17 inches on an average wet day, this is not the damp drizzle of a marine climate; it is an arid record in which precipitation is both uncommon and light when it appears.
The wettest month by count is April at about 9 wet days; the driest is June at about 3.
A low per-event average in a dry record is a statement about typical days only. Arid regions can still take a large share of a year's total from a single convective storm, which a normal cannot show.
A wet day is one recording at least 0.01 inches. These are 1991-2020 normals: they describe an average year, not the extremes within it.
Winter brings real snow to Utah Lake Lehi
Utah Lake Lehi averages 26.3 inches of snowfall a year, with December the snowiest month on the normals, spread across roughly 15 days that record measurable snow. That is depth accumulating on the ground, which is why it can exceed the annual precipitation figure: precipitation counts the liquid the snow melts down to, and fresh snow is mostly air.
- Annual snowfall: 26.3 inches of depth.
- Days recording measurable snow: about 15 a year.
- At a rough ten-to-one melt ratio, snow accounts for on the order of 20% of the year's precipitation.
NOAA 1991-2020 normals. The ten-to-one ratio is a convention, not a measurement: real ratios vary with temperature, so treat the share as an order of magnitude rather than an exact split.

Snow and freeze rhythm
When cold and snow define Utah Lake Lehi
heating led · dry · mid swing
Utah Lake Lehi's energy balance leans toward cold weather: 5,955 annual heating degree days against 788 for cooling. Its 47.1°F seasonal range still makes the monthly rows more useful than the annual average alone.
Utah Lake Lehi's frost-free season lasts about 162 days, a middle-length window whose endpoints matter more than the annual average. It describes freeze probability, not year-specific planting conditions.

Place identity: U.S. Census Bureau 2024 Gazetteer places. The conservative exact name-and-state crosswalk finds no Census place match, so PlainClimate treats this as a station-mapped location and does not claim it is a municipality. No exact Gazetteer row for Utah Lake Lehi; facility counts that depend on place identity are therefore an upper bound, not a municipal census.
