Utah Daily Snow

Heads up, there may be fresher snow! Read the latest Utah Daily Snow

Wednesday update:

Nothing new to report.  We have three systems that will move into the west coast over the next 8 days or so.  None of which look likely to bring much precipitation (if any) to Utah.  The first is moving north of the area today and tomorrow.  Northern Utah will see breezy conditions and some clouds, but nothing in the way of precipitation.   The next system moves in this weekend but it will shear apart as it moves onshore.  Again, nothing for us but some clouds and breezes.  The third system moves in around Tuesday of next week.  This one may hold together well enough to bring a few light showers to Utah next Wednesday.  At this point, anything we do get will be light with relatively high snow levels.

Beyond middle of next week, the EC and GFS generally both ridge us back up.  The only ray of hope is that both models currently favor troughing over the west coast for the last few days of October.  As mentioned before, not seeing much snow in October shouldn't be a cause for concern.  Not much correlation between October snowfall and total snowfall for the rest of the season...  However, it would be nice to start painting the high elevations with a permanent coat of white.
