Why it snows here
Storms crossing the Great Salt Lake pick up lake-effect moisture and drop it on the Wasatch. That is the origin of Utah's 'greatest snow on earth' claim.
Reading Park City like a forecaster
The number that matters most at Park City is the difference between the base (2080 m) and the summit (3049 m): when the freezing level sits between the two, the mountain is split into rain or wet snow below and dry snow above. The Ski Meter reads the model at both elevations and scores the day with every point accounted for; the full report adds hourly timing, accumulation ranges and confidence tags so you can decide when to travel, not just whether.
