Salt Lake City, UT – A late-season winter storm is expected to bring accumulating snow to much of Utah and southwest Wyoming, impacting travel and morning commutes through Tuesday. A strong cold front moving through the region will drive snow levels below valley floors, creating hazardous conditions.
According to the National Weather Service in Salt Lake City, the heaviest snow is anticipated early Tuesday morning, particularly across the Salt Lake Valley and surrounding areas. Commuters are advised to delay travel until the most intense snowfall subsides. Snow bands could cause rapid accumulation, making roads slick and reducing visibility.
As the storm progresses, precipitation is expected to transition into lighter, more scattered showers by late Tuesday morning and into the afternoon. However, parts of the Salt Lake Valley and Upper Cottonwoods could continue to experience lake-enhanced snowfall, increasing accumulation in localized areas.
Officials urge residents to check road conditions before traveling and to be prepared for delays. Those in higher elevations should anticipate deeper snowfall amounts.
