TL;DR:
There is a chance of a light dusting that will fall late tonight into early Friday morning. Couple day break from the stormy weather so make sure to wax, tune, and be ready for more UT Pow.
Nowcast:
Cold temps and Southerly winds expected up in the mountains today. Lots of clouds out today so if you were planning on working on your tan at the Deer Valley Beach, save it for another day.
Short term:
Slight change of some late storm snow accumulation in parts of the Wasatch by the end of the day. There will be a little break in the storm cycle as the Low Pressure system continues to vortex just south of Utah. These 500 mb maps are showing the vortex happening just south of the wasatch so there won't be too much precip from this storm.
Long term:
That new storm system developed off the coast will likely hit the Pacific NW and start heading our way. Too far out to say for sure but it looks like there is some serious potential for a storm before the weekend rolls out and again mid next week. Keep an eye out for more forecasts as this year continues to pumble the Wasatch.
Backcountry comments:
If you will be traveling in the backcountry make sure you have the proper equipment and know before you go. For the whole avalanche forecast and all things avalanche head over to our friends at the Utah Avalanche Center.
