In the Salt Lake Valley, the NWS reports residents can expect wind, rain, and snow Sunday, Dec. 11 through Tuesday, Dec. 13.
Wind, rain, and snow are all expected Sunday – Tuesday. There is uncertainty with details, but good confidence on impressive mountain snow. Valleys will have snow, but precise timing of the cold front brings lower confidence on when snow starts and with accumulations. #utwx #wywx pic.twitter.com/D1qeYAfWdC
