Cold start to a snowy day!

I think it's a good idea to get the snow-scrapers ready!

South winds will be gusty in Western UT, but also help it warm up statewide. Snow is most likely in the valleys early in the storm, but as it warms up will change to rain by tonight. If it happens earlier, it would limit the amount of accumulation. In general, 1-3 inches are possible in the Northern Valleys with up to 6 inches on the benches.

Mountain snow is expected through Saturday afternoon. 1-2 feet are possible by the end of the storm with up to 3 feet or more in the Cottonwoods, Bear River Range, & near Brian Head.

Another winter storm will move in late Sunday with more wet weather expected for President's Day.
