A storm system that primarily affected southern Utah is now barrelling off to the east, keeping us under a cold easterly flow. Skies are overcast with a flurry or two lost in the shuffle from the departing storm. We only picked up a trace to 2" overnight. Mountain temperatures are straddling 0°F . Add in hourly wind speeds at the highest elevations of 45-50mph (gusts to 60mph) and wind chill becomes a very real and very cold -30°F. Note that some mid-elevation anemometers are also blowing 15-20mph.

Riding conditions are excellent in the wind and sun sheltered terrain with the two day storm snow of 3-6" sitting on soft settled powder. Solar aspects are bottom feeding; ie: dust on crust.

For today, we'll have mostly cloudy skies, sloowwllyy diminishing winds from the north....and frigid temps in the single digits. Clearing skies by evening with a slow warming trend through early weekend. Another storm looks lined up for later Sunday into President's Day.
