Moist storm (27)

Look for valley rain and mountain snow to spread into northern Utah this afternoon/evening, the valley rain changing to snow on Saturday morning as the cold front moves through. The cold front is expected to push south through Utah on Saturday as it weakens. Plan on a general 1-3" snow for the central/northern Wasatch front valleys with 4-5" benches and mountain valleys, trace-1" for the southern Wasatch front valleys with 2-3 benches. In the northern/central Utah mountains look for a general 8-16" (local 17-20") above 7,000 ft, 2-4" in the southern Utah mountains. A second storm is forecasted to move into southern/central Utah on Sunday afternoon and continue into Monday.
