| episode_narrative | A strong winter storm system moved through Utah during this time. Scattered thunderstorms with heavy rain and snow showers developed in the southwest flow ahead of the cold front on the 23rd. Lightning sparked a house fire at about 1815 MST at 3700 south 2700 east in Salt Lake City. The bolt hit a tree in the front yard, travelled through gas pipes underground up to a gas meter on the wall. The gas meter exploded and the fire was ignited. Fortunately no one was injured, though extensive damage occurred to the house. Nearby homes had windows blown in as well. The surface cold front moved through on the 24th with gusty northwest winds 30-40 mph and widespread snow developing. Lake enhanced snow bands again occurred southeast of the Great Salt Lake. Some of the higher storm snowfall amounts included: The Alta Ski Resort 30", Herriman 11", Uintalands 12", Brian Head 10", Flaming Gorge and Park City 7", and 6" in Randolph. Most northern and central Utah valleys received from 2-5" of snow. |
