This morning temperatures are in the single digits F except around Strawberry Reservoir where it's in the negative single digits F. Winds continue from the north averaging 10-25 mph gusting to 30 at higher elevations and much calmer at lower elevations.
Today will be mostly sunny and cold again with temperatures only in the teens F. North winds will continue and fortunately not be too strong except at higher elevations.
This week a series of ridges of high pressure will keep the weather dry and bring warmer temperatures. A few clouds may pass over northern Utah but no snow is expected until possibly next weekend.
Generally there's about two feet of snow in the Uintas although you can find a few places at upper elevations with closer to three feet. There are three basic layers in the snowpack seen in the photo below with a few inches on top from Saturday's storm.

No avalanches have been reported in the Uintas. There have been just a few small wind slabs triggered by ski patrols in the Wasatch.
