SALT LAKE CITY — Snow slowed the morning commute and delayed the start of some schools in northern Utah on Thursday morning.
Classes will begin two hours late due to weather in the Davis, Ogden and Weber school districts, and Syracuse Arts Academy, Ascent Academy in Farmington and Spectrum Academy Charter School in North Salt Lake.
Due to snow accumulation, schools in the Davis School District will implement a two-hour delayed start this morning.

Good morning! If heading out for your morning commute along the Wasatch Front, light snow continues and you may encounter some of that snow on the roads. Be careful out there! Here are the current views from Orem, Layton, and Big Cottonwood Canyon. #utwxpic.twitter.com/q6Q8yJH2cu
