Storm

The light is weird, slightly orange/pink, which is usually more noticeable later when it's darker, and there is a big snowstorm approaching. I'm already planning on getting up and just heading off to work without breakfast. That uphill drive is always iffy when there is ice or snow. With how warm it is now, this will likely have an ice layer beneath whatever snow dumps on top.

Winter Storm warning.

Heavy snow expected. Total snow accumulations of 6 to 12
inches valley floor, and 12 to 22 inches on the benches as well
as near Tooele. Winds gusting as high as 35 mph.

Typical February sort of storm. Lots of accumulation and bluster, but it won't stick around. Not like Detroit snow, once down it stayed all winter, getting grayer and grittier until April or May. Here, it'll melt by Wednesday. Especially this time of year.
