MOSTLY VFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST FOR THE KSLC  
TERMINAL THROUGH THE PERIOD, BUT A FEW BRIEF SNOW SHOWERS COULD DROP  
VIS TO MVFR OR IFR THROUGH ~02Z. LOWERED CIGS WILL CREATE MOUNTAIN  
OBSCURATION THROUGH ~06Z BEFORE CONDITIONS START TO CLEAR OVERNIGHT.  
THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD WILL BE DRY WITH LIGHT NORTHERLY WINDS  
TRANSITIONING TO LIGHT SOUTHERLY FLOW OVERNIGHT.   
REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING  
ISOLATED AND BRIEF SNOW  
SHOWERS ACROSS THE NORTHERN AIRSPACE WILL CREATE INTERMITTENT  
MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS THROUGH ~02Z. LOWERED CIGS WILL ALSO CONTRIBUTE  
TO MOUNTAIN OBSCURATION THROUGH ~06Z. SKIES WILL GRADUALLY CLEAR  
OVERNIGHT WITH DRYING CONDITIONS. WINDS WILL BE LIGHT AND VARIABLE.
