SALT LAKE CITY ( ABC4 ) – Happy Friday, Utah! Our active weather will continue through Friday, with wraparound precipitation affecting areas in southeastern Utah into Saturday.
Bottom Line?! A wet, snowy, and cold end to the work week…
Winter storm warnings are in effect for the mountains of Utah this morning. Snow is accumulating on mountain roads, making travel hazardous Friday morning. Anyone heading into the mountains should be prepared for winter weather conditions through Saturday.
Snow levels have dipped to about 5,000 feet early Friday. The mountains southeast of the Great Salt Lake and areas like the Uinta and Wasatch Mountains could see the heaviest snowfall with 12 to 24 inches of snow in the forecast. Eight to 16 inches will be possible for the central and southern mountains. With snow levels dropping to 5,000 feet, our bench areas of the Wasatch Front will likely see minor accumulations as well. A wintry mix can’t be ruled out for the lower valleys as well on Friday morning as temperatures are expected to be in the upper 30s.
