Climate Chart of Salt Lake City, USA

Monthly data: Temperature °C, Rain (mm), Sunshine (h) · 2013–2023

Climate overview

Temperature

Monthly mean temperatures are lowest in January, at -1.8 °C, and highest in July, at 27.3 °C. These are monthly averages, not daytime highs or lows, so conditions can vary from day to day within either month. The unweighted mean across the calendar-month means is 11.4 °C; it summarizes those monthly averages rather than representing a day-weighted annual figure.

Rain

Mean daily rainfall is highest in April, at 2.11 mm/day, and lowest in July, at 0.29 mm/day. The unweighted mean across the monthly means is 1.01 mm/day. These are average daily amounts, not monthly totals, and they do not show how often rain falls or guarantee what an individual day will bring.

Sunshine

Mean daily sunshine reaches its highest monthly level in June, at 13.26 hours/day, and its lowest in December, at 6.33 hours/day. The unweighted mean across the calendar-month means is 9.88 hours/day hours per day. These averages can help describe typical sunshine duration, but sunshine hours are not a measure of day length and do not determine the conditions on a particular day.

Snow

Mean daily snowfall is highest in January, at 7.91 mm/day. Across the calendar-month means, the unweighted mean is 2.74 mm/day. These daily averages do not indicate how many days have snowfall, how deep snow becomes, or whether snow cover persists, so they cannot establish snow conditions for a particular visit.

Best Travel Time Guide for Salt Lake City, USA: Ideal Seasons and Weather Insights

For visitors prioritising cooler monthly-average conditions, January is the relevant reference point, with a mean temperature of -1.8 °C; this is not a daytime low or a guarantee of cool weather on every day. If lower average rainfall is the main criterion, July has the lowest mean daily rainfall at 0.29 mm/day, but that does not guarantee dry days or indicate rain frequency. Plan for the possibility of rain if travelling in April, when mean daily rainfall is highest at 2.11 mm/day; the average is not a forecast or a monthly total. For outdoor sightseeing based on typical sunshine duration, June records the highest mean daily sunshine at 13.26 hours/day, while December records the lowest at 6.33 hours/day. Sunshine duration does not equal day length, and neither figure guarantees the conditions on your travel dates.

In January, mean daily snowfall is highest at 7.91 mm/day. Treat this as an average amount rather than evidence of snowy days, snow depth, persistent cover, or suitable skiing conditions; the figures alone cannot establish what snow will be like during a visit.
