Yesterday had mostly cloudy skies but periods with the sun appeared. High temperatures ranged from 30-40 degrees F. Despite some impressive looking spring storms rolling though the area, only a trace of new snow fell yesterday afternoon.
This morning, temperatures are mostly in the low 20s F. Winds are blowing 5 mph gusting to 10 mph from the west at ridgelines and just a bit stronger at the highest elevations.
Today's strong sunshine will help temperatures warm up quickly and rise into the 30s and low 40s F. Winds will remain light and will shift to the north and then back to the west and then to the southwest. A decent storm should arrive Friday night and could bring a foot of snow.
There were 3-6 inches of new snow in most places yesterday morning and 10 inches along the Park City ridgeline. This new snow became wet on nearly all slopes except steeper north facing ones. There should be an ice crust on many slopes this morning but I expect that it will quickly melt.
