After weekend storms snarled traffic — and caused an avalanche that swept away a car in Salt Lake County — snow is expected to continue this week in northern Utah.
Monday’s storm was expected to bring a dusting to the Wasatch Front, with up to a foot of new snow in the mountains, adding to more than 2 feet that fell this weekend at the Cottonwood Canyon ski resorts.
But getting to the slopes proved a challenge; the Utah Department of Transportation reported extreme congestion along Wasatch Boulevard, leading up to the canyons — and that was before an avalanche in Little Cottonwood Canyon swept over the road, catching one car.
