Winter Hits Utah
Officially, winter is close to two weeks away. But when I look out my front window and spy close to a foot of fresh snow in my yard here in Sandy, Utah, I know that winter is here whether the calendar says so or not.
Yup, during the past 36-48 hours Northern Utah has gotten slammed by a major storm that dumped as much as two to three feet of powder at local resorts.
For example, Snowbird Ski and Summer Resort now has 48 inches at mid-mountain. Alta Ski Resort reports 54 inches at the base, while Deer Valley has a base of 42 inches.
Who knows? Maybe this will be the year our multi-year drought in Utah gets knocked out cold. All I know for sure is that it’s right time to be living where we have “The Greatest Snow on Earth.”
