A National Weather Service dense fog advisory has expired after a morning with limited visibility on northern Utah highways, with some drivers navigating roadways without being able to see more than a quarter-mile ahead.
It could be back for Round 2, though.
There was still some residual fog in places toward the noon hour on Tuesday, but it was a far cry from the early hours when patches of heavy haze especially affected locations around the Great Salt Lake. The Utah Department of Transportation's traffic cameras showed multiple counties experiencing the brume during peak drive times, and vehicles in some of the feeds were barely distinguishable if not for their blurred headlights.
Conditions are favorable for more fog to form overnight and into the morning in those same areas, said 2News meteorologist Lindsay Storrs. Drivers may want to plan for a few extra minutes of drive time to account for any possible slowdowns due to potential visibility issues.
On the southern end of the state, the cold front that moved over central Utah on Monday is now dropping scattered snow and rain showers on the region. There's still more to come, though.
Storrs said the best chance for rain and snow will come Wednesday as a storm coming from California blows into southwest Utah, where it will interact with the slow-moving cold front. Some of that moisture could head into northeastern Utah on Wednesday afternoon and evening, as well.
The storm will make its way out of the state Wednesday night, just in time for yet another round of potential rain and snow.
A storm system is currently headed in Utah's direction, which could bring rain, and then snow, late Saturday. Some of that snow could linger through Sunday and into Monday. Current models show it could be a significant storm for Utah. As it makes its way closer, the 2News Weather team will be updating the forecast to reflect any changes that happen along the way.
