It's Christmas, believe it or not.

 TL;DR:

Clear weather for the foreseeable future, unfortunately any snow will be quite limited.

Nowcast:

Partly cloudy, with a high of 34 degrees. Temperatures at Alta range from 3 degrees at the base to 13 degrees at the top of Collins. 

Short term:

High pressure over the next several days that will prevent snow. Expect temperatures to keep on rising throughout the week. Due to this high pressure, air quality could get worse throughout the week until the next storm system arrives. Thankfully, a cold front hit several days ago to clean out the air.

We see that the air quality got better quickly on Saturday, but now it's starting to rise again. It feels like an endless cycle, we have an inversion, we get snow that clears out the inversion, then we get another inversion. As the inversion builds, we could see higher temperatures in the valley compared to the mountains. 

Long term:

As of right now, it appears like the weather over the next week is going to remain the same. The GFS shows high pressure remaining over Utah for a while, with some isolated precipitation systems potentially making their way to Utah. I hope that the start of the new year causes the overall outlook for the season to look better.
