PARK CITY, Utah — Despite the warmer weather this week, the temperature in Park City on Sunday will be 27° colder than on Thursday, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Salt Lake City.

On Thursday, the NWS office at the Salt Lake City International Airport tied the record for the earliest 70° day on record.

Through the weekend, Park City could see up to ten inches of snow, with more possibly coming later next week.

Expect scattered valley rain showers this afternoon. Some moisture won’t reach valley floors because of dry conditions near the ground. There are better chances for snow showers in the mountains. More moisture and cooler conditions are still expected for the weekend. #utwx #wywx pic.twitter.com/ivW1moV4v3
