It appears that the inversion smog over the Great Salt Lake was dragged back into the Salt Lake Valley with the cold front this afternoon. Check out this marvelous video of it from George Wilkerson's web cam (www.ocwx.com, video compilation by Prof. Steve Kreuger, University of Utah Atmospheric Sciences). Note the shallow nature of the cold air, the formation of low level "scud" clouds where the southwesterly prefrontal air is lifted over the frontal nose, and the smog, haze, and fog behind the front. Don't worry, this is a short-term setback.
