He makes it sound like he's going to be snowed in or something...

Overnight Mostly cloudy, with a low around 32. South wind 7 to 9 mph.
Saturday Snow likely, mainly after noon. Cloudy, with a high near 39. Light northwest wind increasing to 12 to 17 mph in the morning. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible.
Saturday Night Snow likely, mainly before midnight. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 20. North northwest wind 6 to 11 mph becoming light after midnight. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Little or no snow accumulation expected.
Sunday A 30 percent chance of snow, mainly before noon. Partly sunny, with a high near 30. North northeast wind 5 to 8 mph. Little or no snow accumulation expected.
Sunday Night Partly cloudy, with a low around 19. Calm wind becoming southeast around 5 mph after midnight.
Monday A 30 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 36. Little or no snow accumulation expected.
Monday Night A 30 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 23. Little or no snow accumulation expected.
Tuesday Partly sunny, with a high near 38.
Tuesday Night Mostly cloudy, with a low around 25.
Wednesday Mostly cloudy, with a high near 44.
Wednesday Night A chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 26.
Thursday A chance of snow. Partly sunny, with a high near 41.
Thursday Night A slight chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 24.
Friday A slight chance of snow. Partly sunny, with a high near 39.

None of the 4 systems will be very heavy and probably only an inch or two will fall with each system.  This first system may have the heaviest snowfall at 3-5" including lake effect.  But, it happened to coincide with a regular trip to Walmart.  I just threw in the 4 snow systems for dramatic effect.

That's not an inch or two with each system.  That's at most an inch total.

I'm going with our local meteorologists and they all say 1-3" with this first one plus 3-5" lake effect (though some make it only an inch additional for lake effect).  They are also saying 1-2" on Monday, as well.  Nothing has been said for Thursday or Saturday because its still a bit early for accumulations.

That forecast has to be for further north than you... you won't get that much snow from lake effect snow with wind pattern out there.  You're too far south (if you are in Midvale / Sandy).

We got 22.7" in Sandy with the November storm.  No, we're not too far south.  In fact, the lake effect can extend as far south as Orem and Provo and as far east as Park City.

Yes, CAN, but not with this system... the wind direction is not right for it.  At most, you'll get an inch.  After the system is through, I'd love to hear how much you actually got.

Alright, will do.  The direction of the storm and the overall flow is coming directly from the North-Northwest from Alaska and the Yukon Territory which puts Murray, Midvale, and Sandy all in a direct path of the Great Salt Lake.

Whatever we get, though, will be paltry by Salt Lake City standards.

So the guy who stays in a hotel near work if there's 1" of snow on the ground is in SLC now? Hmmmm....

[tmthforu94]

Have you been up to Snow Basin yet?

[Queen Mum Inks.LWC]

This sums up these update threads:

I just threw in [Fill in the blank] for dramatic effect.

Have you been up to Snow Basin yet?

I havent been to any of the ski resorts, yet.

In this case, it was true.

Anyway, its just about to start snowing.  The snow is spreading down slope of the Wasatch and should be approaching the I-15 corridor and then points west.

[Franzl]

I would love to ski in Utah.

I would love to ski in Utah.

I wouldnt mind learning!

[Joe Biden 2020]

The snow has started to fall in the Midvale/Sandy area.  It took a while for it to make its way down the mountain and cross I-15, but now we have light snow falling.  Temperatures are still at 35 in Midvale, 38 in Salt Lake City, but we are supposed to drop to the low 20s across the Valley by morning.

[Joe Biden 2020]

The snow is now falling moderately heavy and the temperature has dropped to 31.  We started at 40 at 9:00 this morning (5 hours ago).  The rooftops and the grass are turning white.  It is so beautiful.  At this rate, it won't take long for an inch or two to fall.

[Joe Biden 2020]

The temperature has dropped to 28 with a WCI of 16 and a light NE breeze of 17 mph.  We've got an easy inch on the ground now with moderate and heavy snow.  We'll probably get another inch before the lake effect machine cranks up later this evening.

[patrick1]

Hey Roker.  Go out and get some exercise.

[Joe Biden 2020]

A light snow shower is currently falling right now.  SLC Airport has had around 2.5 inches this afternoon.  Midvale has had about 1.5 inches.  The lake effect band is starting to set up bringing another 3-5" mainly to the central and western Salt Lake Valley and the eastern Tooele Valley.  We will be  just on the edge of it, so we might get 2" of lake effect.  Temperatures are down to 25 in Midvale with a WCI in the middle teens.

The snow on Monday is expected to drop about an inch, and now Weather Underground is saying the system Thursday night into Friday is supposed to drop 2-3", which is higher than what was previously forecast.  Its too early to talk about next Sunday's snow accumulations.

[Joe Biden 2020]

Latest totals are 2" in West Jordan (1/4 mile due west of my apartment) with light snow continuing to fall..  I can expect another inch to inch and a half by noon tomorrow.  We'll have tomorrow afternoon dry before more snow comes in on Monday that could deliver another 1-2".  We'll warm up back into the low 40's Tuesday and Wednesday before we get another storm in here Thursday night and Friday that could bring another 1-3".  We'll take Saturday off before yet another storm comes in next Sunday.  These totals are all according to our local meteorologists.

Hey Roker.  Go out and get some exercise.

If you think this is bad, check out his facebook feed. It goes a little something like this:

"Thirty minutes ago we had two snowflakes on the ground, now we have an easy three!"

Yeah, I know, I'm still a kid when it comes to snow.  I get excited about snow.  I don't go out and play in the snow, although I do want to learn how to ski, but I do get giddy when it comes to snow.  That's one of the reasons I jumped at the chance to move to Salt Lake City.  We get a measley 8-10" a year in Oklahoma and quite a bit of ice.  In Salt Lake, our average is 61" of snow a year and there's relatively little ice.  I'm not as fond of sleet or freezing rain, but I am a kid at heart when it comes to snow.

[Joe Biden 2020]

According to our local Fox affiliate on their 9:00 news, the roads are getting extremely slick and there have been numerous car wrecks in Weber, Davis, and Salt Lake Counties.  With snow forecast to continue to fall overnight, I will be staying home from church.  I live 16 miles from church, and temps are supposed to be around 20 degrees and the snow will just be ending by 9:00 am when I would leave.  I want to make sure I'm fully intact to go to work on Monday, so I will be staying home from church tomorrow.

[Joe Biden 2020]

I just went outside and measured and we have 3" on the ground and its still coming down nice and steady.
