Outlook
A dynamic cold front is kicking up heavy snow in our mountains this morning and will eventually fill in for the valleys. General timing of this cold front will be 9AM-Noon with the heaviest snowfall likely between 11AM-3PM along the Wasatch Front. By evening hours we'll see snow showers more widely scattered along the Wasatch Front with less activity expected in the overnight with generally drying conditions. Mountain snow forecast totals through early Thursday morning: northern mountains 10"-20", Cottonwoods 12"-24", Uinta and central mountains 10"-20", and southern mountains 12"-24". Valley/lower mountain valley forecast totals: northern valleys 1"-4" with locally higher from Ogden to Cache Valley, benches 3"-6", Wasatch back 6"-12", central valleys 3"-6" with up to 8" possible in Cedar City, and southern valleys (excluding lower Washington County and Lake Powell area) 2"-4". - Matt Johnson, KSL Weather 2.18.26
