Yesterday, temperatures were much warmer than previous days, hitting highs between 40-49 F in the mountains. The winds were light and southwesterly throughout the day, and the cloud cover moved in and out throughout the day letting in periods of sun.
This morning, mountain temperatures in the upper 20s F at trailheads, and low 20s F at ridgetops. Winds are northeasterly and generally light averaging 5-10 mph below 10,000'. At the highest elevation, ridgetops gusts are near 25 mph.
Today will be another sunny and warm one before a quick-hitting cold front moves through Northern Utah. Skies will be clear, and winds northeasterly in the morning and average 5-15 mph with gusts below 25 mph at mid-elevations. Upper elevation ridgelines will average 10-20 mph with gusts up to 40 mph. Throughout the day the winds will shift to northwesterly and increase into the evening as the temperatures drop. With the cold front, the central Wasatch could get 1-3 inches of snow.
Yesterday's warm temperatures and high cloud cover lead to a few small wet-loose avalanches and roller balls in the backcountry.
