While the brunt of a massive storm system has passed through most of Utah, there are still lingering weather impacts in the state expected today and tomorrow.
The weather service adds that some of the lingering scattered showers could produce another 8 to 14 inches of snow or more in Wasatch and western Uinta Mountains from Thursday into Friday afternoon. Those areas are included in a new winter weather advisory issued Thursday morning.
The lingering snow could pose more travel impacts. There were hundreds of slide-offs and crashes on Utah roads between Tuesday and Wednesday; the Utah Department of Transportation issued another road weather alert for primarily mountain passes and parts of southern Utah. "An additional 2-5 inches of road snow is possible along the I-15 corridor , especially south of Cedar City and north of St. George," the agency wrote. "Southerly winds will remain gusty throughout the event as well, leading to blowing and drifting snow concerns."But it's only a temporary reprieve. While Saturday will likely be dry, he points out that another storm system is forecast to move into Utah, this time from California.
