Outlook
Strong winds overnight pushed wind gusts up to 40-70 mph with some isolated 90 mph gusts near Lake Point on I-80. Today will be comprised of some rain/snow showers for the valleys and accumulating snowfall for the mountains. A potent cold front will sweep through the state Wednesday morning dropping snow levels all the way down to the valley floors, a few inches of snow do look likely at the moment. Snow showers persist Wednesday afternoon in the valleys while the mountain tops get hammered with a lot of new snow. Potential snow totals by Thursday night: northern mountains 12"-24", Cottonwoods 18"-36", Uinta and central mountains 10"-20", and southern mountains 15"-30". Valley/lower mountain valley forecast totals with majority falling on Wednesday: northern valleys: 1"-4" with locally higher from Ogden to Cache Valley, benches 2"-6", Wasatch back 6"-12", central valleys 3"-6" with 4"-8" possible in Cedar City, and southern valleys (excluding lower Washington County and Lake Powell area) 1"-3". - Matt Johnson, KSL Weather 2.17.26
