Utah Climate Center scientists study all facets of weather data
The Utah Climate Center at Utah State University has been providing Utahns and people globally with accurate weather forecasts measuring the state’s precipitation for 134 years.
Founded in the early 1890s, the Utah Climate Center has been devoted to accurately documenting and sharing climate information for businesses and the public alike. Since inception, it has expanded by adding more stations and hiring more specialists; to provide weather services to growers and researchers worldwide.
Climate data is grouped into mission specific networks that primarily support Utah agriculture. Stations have research grade sensors that measure solar radiation, wind, relative humidity, air and soil temperature, precipitation and soil moisture.
