Farmington is situated in the Great Basin region. The city is surrounded by mountains to the east and the Great Salt Lake to the west. The landscape creates a rain shadow effect. Moist air from the Pacific Ocean hits the mountains, resulting in precipitation. Dry air then moves over the Great Salt Lake and into Farmington.

The lower barometric pressure in Farmington is partly due to its proximity to the Great Salt Lake. The lake's surface is about 1,300 feet below the surrounding mountains. This elevation difference contributes to the lower air pressure. Additionally, the lake's water temperature affects the local climate.
