Winter weather blasts Utah

Snow was filling up the canyons along the Wasatch on Tuesday morning as a wintery Halloween week continued in Utah.

A winter weather advisory was in place until Tuesday night, with 3 to 7 inches of snow expected in the Wasatch Mountains south of Interstate 80 including central Utah; 2 to 5 inches in the mountains north of I-80; and 1 to 4 inches along the Wasatch Front, as well as the Cache Valley and Tooele Valley, according to the National Weather Service.

The Cottonwood Canyons could see exceptional snow; 8 to 12 inches are expected, but lake-effect factors may line up mid-day to exceed a foot of snow, NWS reported.
