A weak cold front arrives Monday with limited moisture, mainly for the northern mountains. The better chance for widespread rain and mountain snow comes Tuesday through Wednesday, when most of the state could pick up a decent amount of moisture.

While snowfall amounts are still early guesstimates this far out, the Northern Utah mountains should see 5-10", or more, of snow, while central and southern mountains are less likely to see significant accumulations. Valley snow chances remain low with mainly rain expected.
