[#0000FF]Sam Braegger of the Utah Lake Commission sent me some links to different weather sites around Utah Lake.[/#0000FF]
[#0000FF] [/#0000FF]
There are four weather stations around Utah Lake, close to the shoreline, located approximately at the four points of the compass: American Fork Marina, Provo Airport, Lincoln Point, and MP 17. Although these four stations are "owned" by different entities, all tie into the National Weather Service network.
American Fork Marina:
This is a weather station owned by Utah Lake Commission and partners. Installed spring of 2018. You can find weather data for this specific site here:

Provo Airport:
This is the airport's weather station. You can find weather data for this specific site here:

Lincoln Point:
This station is owned by Utah State University. It is located up on West Mountain, above Lincoln Point. You can find weather data for this specific site here:

MP 17:
This weather station is owned by UDOT and is located inbetween Mile Post 16 and Mile Post 17 on Redwood Road, south of Saratoga Springs. You can find weather data for this specific site here:

If you're looking for integrated weather from all four of these stations, as well as other weather stations in our area, we recommend you use a smartphone app such as Windy, WeatherBug or others that allow you to tap into specific weather stations instead of a general picture like the Weather Channel app does. We prefer Windy ([url "http://windy.com"]windy.com[/url]), because we feel it is user-friendly (just compare the two links we shared for AF Marina to see what we mean).
