Utah Daily Snow
By Evan Thayer, Forecaster Posted 7 years ago September 29, 2016
Active Start to October
Summary:
Rain showers today (Thursday) are possible as moisture increases across the region. Warmer temps and chances for showers continue this weekend. Things change early next week as another cold trough passes through the region, bringing high elevation snow showers to Utah.
Details:
Showers today (Thursday) are certainly possible, perhaps even likely in the mountains. Snow levels will be extremely high, probably above 11,000 feet. A bit of a break tomorrow and perhaps Saturday, then showers increase again later in the weekend as a trough approaches.
A system is going to drop down the Pacific coast and bring precipitation to the Cascades and Sierra Nevada. Then it will push east across the Great Basin, bringing colder temps to Utah on Monday and Tuesday. The cool temps will be accompanied by snow showers in the mountains as well. Right now, the Euro is more bullish with this system than the GFS. Overall, it doesn't look overly strong at this time, but we could see a few inches of accumulation once again in the highest elevations. We'll have to watch.
I may not be able to update until later in the weekend.
