Mountain Snow

Valley Snow Thursday

A series of winter storms will bring impactful snow to Utah’s mountains starting Christmas Day, with multiple additional rounds into the weekend. A Thursday-Friday storm will impact the central and northern mountains. The storm track will then shift northward into the weekend, primarily impacting the northern mountains, with multiple rounds of inch/hour rates. Total snow accumulations from multiple storms will range from 1-3 feet with higher amounts in the Bear River Mountains, Ben Lomond vicinity, and upper Cottonwoods. Much less snow is expected for mountains farther south.

A winter storm will bring accumulating snow to the most valleys along I-15 from Cove Fort northward, but most significantly to the far northern Wasatch Front including the I-84 corridor from Tremonton to the Idaho border. Snow will begin Thursday morning, lasting 2-5 hours. A separate round of snow showers with a low-end chance of snow squalls will arrive in the late afternoon and evening. Total snow accumulations of several inches are expected for the far northern Wasatch Front, with 3-6” for the I-84 corridor north of Tremonton. Elsewhere, accumulations of up to an inch expected for valley floors and up to two inches for benches.
