Abstract
Climate in Utah is greatly influenced by its location within the North American Continent with significant local modifications due to topography. Northern, higher-latitude locations are generally cooler than southern, lower-latitude locations. Likewise, higher-elevation locations are typically cooler and wetter than lower-elevation locations.
