The coronavirus pandemic, a 5.7 magnitude earthquake and its aftershocks — and now spring snow in Utah? That’s what the National Weather Service is forecasting.

A cold front is expected to “sag south” into northern Utah late Tuesday afternoon through Tuesday night, bringing “significant precipitation” with it. There’s a 60% chance of rain — possibly thunderstorms — in the Salt Lake City area on Wednesday afternoon; that probability rises to 90% Wednesday night, with a low of 37.

Rain mixed with snow is likely on Wednesday, with a high of 46 and little or no snow accumulation. But that will change to all snow after midnight, with a low of 34 and possible accumulations of less than an inch. More light snow is expected Thursday, with a high near 44. The chance of snow showers drops to 20 percent on Thursday night as temperatures fall below freezing to about 30.

Much heavier snow is forecast for the northern Utah mountains. Park City could see 3 to 7 inches Tuesday night; another 2 to 4 inches on Wednesday; 2 to 4 more inches on Wednesday night; and 1 to 3 inches on Thursday.

The rain and snow end on Friday, and temperatures begin to rise. The Salt Lake City area can expect a high of 46 on Friday, 51 on Saturday, 56 on Sunday and 60 on Monday.
