SALT LAKE CITY– Summer turned to winter in an instant over the weekend, as snow fell in the mountains and in lower valleys across the Beehive State. Snow in Central and Southern Utah made for a treacherous drive on I-15. By the weekend’s end, Beaver got 4 inches of snow and Cedar City got 3 inches.

KSL Meterologist Matt Johnson said more winter weather is on it’s way Tuesday morning.
