There was nothing better as a kid in Illinois than a snow day.

Unfortunately for Utah kids, snow days are about as rare as a spotted owl.

Tonight, snow is going to hit Northern Utah pretty hard.

According to fox13now.com: (LINK TO FULL ARTICLE)

"The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Warning for the Salt Lake Valley beginning at midnight through 6 p.m. Tuesday, with valley floors expected to receive between 2-6 inches of snow and 6-12 inches along the benches."

Jeez what month is it, March?

That much snow is going to make it down to the valley floors?

@ChaseTomason on X says:

"A strong cold front associated with a potent late season winter storm is expected to bring accumulating snow to much of Utah and southwest Wyoming tonight into Tuesday. A band of heavy snow is expected to accompany the frontal passage, with impacts likely to the Tuesday morning commute as snow levels crash below valley floors."

He's recommending people move a little slower in the morning, maybe have an extra egg, well not an egg because those are $19 dollars a yolk, but maybe an extra helping of oatmeal and head out to work around 9 a.m. That way you can allow the snow plows to clear out the way for you.

UDOT has sent out a pass out on their Twitter so people can show it to their bosses for why they're late to work.

Not sure how well this will work for you but it's worth a shot.

Be safe out there!
