FROM THE UTAH WEATHER ALMANAC

There’s history in the forecast.

In 1967, a tornado destroyed the Last Chance Motel in Emery. In 1994, the first major snowstorm of the season hit northern Utah. The weight of the snow caused power outages throughout the north. Numerous traffic accidents in Parley's Canyon caused I-80 to be closed for several hours. Mapleton received 9 inches of snow while North Salt Lake had 10 inches.
