PARK CITY, Utah — Utah received quite a bit of snow from Wednesday’s storm, with the Cottonwoods and Park City continuing what has become a great start to the snow season. Another upcoming storm will start with snowy conditions through much of the Wasatch, but warmer temperatures are forecasted to push the snow toward 7,000 feet and higher before cooling down again Saturday night, according to PowderChasers.

With the potential for moisture to move further south on Sunday, chances for moderate levels of snow increase for both the Cottonwoods and Park City, with mid to upper elevations being the most likely recipient.

The mixed weather and the likelihood of denser snow in the area could bring increased avalanche danger. See the Utah Avalanche Center’s forecast page for more information regarding avalanche risk forecasts and advice on what to watch for in the backcountry.
