Another stormy weekend!

Moisture streaming north into Utah will bring widespread showers & t-storms through Saturday. Heavy rain is most likely in Southern, Central, & Eastern UT through tomorrow morning, then across the north Saturday afternoon & evening.

South winds will be gusty (30-40 mph) across Western & Northern Utah ahead of a cold front that's expected to move in late Saturday. Strong to severe t-storms could develop along the front, bringing the best chance of heavy rain to the north.

Cold air moving in behind the front could knock snow levels down to about 6,000 ft. Since that's on the tail end of the storm, only about 1-4 inches are expected in the Cottonwoods, even though more is possible.

It's going to dry out Sunday, but temps by then will only climb into the mid to upper 50s along the Wasatch Front.
