SALT LAKE CITY (ABC4) — Utah’s weekend storm has moved on through, leaving behind a fresh blanket of snow on Utah’s mountains. Some flurries even made it down to the valley floor as shown by the National Weather Service of Salt Lake City in a video at the Salt Lake International Airport.

As the snow totals roll in, we can see exactly how much snow the mountains got in one of Utah’s first winter storms of the season.

Using data from Ski Utah, Snowbird came out as the winner when it comes to snow totals with the last storm. The Little Cottonwood resort recorded 22 inches over the last two days. It will still be over a week before skiers can enjoy the snow, however, as Snowbird won’t open its slopes until Nov. 30.

Alta was the only other resort that reported enough snow to declare a “powder day,” with 19 inches of snow in the last 48 hours. The snow brought the base for the Alta Ski Area up to 32 inches, the most of any resort across Utah before Thanksgiving.
