SALT LAKE CITY — An upcoming storm is bringing rain and snow to the Wasatch Front starting Sunday night. Monday’s commute could be a snowy one.
Valley rain and mountain snow are expected. By tomorrow morning the rain will turn to snow that will last on and off into Tuesday with multiple waves.
Snow will start across the mountains of Utah Sunday lasting through Monday with lingering snow into Tuesday.
A gradual transition from rain to snow will occur late this evening for valleys and continue into Monday, which could bring travel difficulties Monday A.M. #utwx #wywx pic.twitter.com/y3rd14Los0

Darren Van Cleave with the National Weather Service says this upcoming storm could be unpredictable.
“The first round is gonna be a mix of rain and snow, especially on valley floors,” he says. “So, we have some uncertainties in just how much snow will pick up with the first round overnight.”
Van Cleave says we are looking at 2 to 6 inches of rain and snow on the valley floor.
With how this storm is shaping up, as always, plan ahead and drive safe on Monday’s commute.
