* ADDITIONAL DETAILS…Areas favored by moist northwest flow such as
the Upper Cottonwoods, Ben Lomond Peak vicinity, and the Bear
River Mountains have a 70-90% chance of exceeding 18 inches over a
multi-day period between Thursday and Saturday, with a 20-30%
chance of exceeding 30 inches. The highest chances are farther
north in the Bear River Mountains. The snow will be denser than

the weekend. There is further possibility of an additional storm
Sunday into Monday which would bring a return to colder
temperatures and shift the threat of snow southward.
