Utahns scramble to get snow tires after first major winter storm

Posted

It’s one of those things that many people put off to the last minute, buying new tires or snow tires, especially considering temperatures were hovering near 50 just a week ago.

When the weather suddenly changed, it caught many Utahns off guard.

The snow started falling, the slide offs and accidents began piling up and many were making a mad dash to the nearest tire store.

The folks at Big O Tire in Murray said people were lined up before they opened the store at 7:30 a.m. Monday.

If you still need snow tires, this lull in the snow storm pattern would be a good time to get them.
