SALT LAKE CITY (ABC 4) – Hey there, Utah! Active weather will continue Friday as a second wave of energy moves into the state.

Bottom Line?! A strong spring storm moving in today will keep showers in the forecast for the weekend.

Today’s storm system will bring scattered to widespread showers and thunderstorms to the entire state with high-elevation snowfall. Our low-pressure system is sliding down out of the Gulf of Alaska and, as a result, will bring in much cooler air with it.

Snow levels will likely drop to and remain near 7,000 feet as active weather will carry over into the weekend with the heaviest snowfall above 8,000 feet.

Daytime highs will reach the low to mid 50’s for the Wasatch Front while southern Utah will see temperatures fall into the 60s.
