And the storm continues...
Snowfall amounts vary widely across the Provo zone. Snowfall amounts are greatest in the upper reaches of American Fork...and as far south as Payson with 1-2' of snow. Provo canyon is reporting a trace to an inch with storm totals of about a foot of new.
Mountain temperatures are in the teens.
Winds, as foretold, ramped up overnight from the west-northwest, blowing 15-25mph with gusts to 40. The highest peaks have gusts to 75.
We'll see continued periods of heavy snowfall today with perhaps an additional 2-6" or so, although amounts may vary widely. Snowfall will continue through tomorrow morning.
Mountain temps will be in the single digits to low teens. Winds from the west-northwest will lose some steam, but I view them as excellent wind slab building material.
We dry out mid to late week with a warming trend on tap for the weekend.
We did not hear of any avalanches in the Provo area mountains but numerous slides were reported in the Ogden and SLC mountains. We are hoping to look further into an avalanche accident from April 1 on the front side of Mahogany Mountain on Timp above Pleasant Grove.
