It actually wasn't as snowy as that photo looks, about 6" new at the time. I think they got another ~6" by Sunday morning. But storm underperformed a bit. More snow coming to Utah starting 5 Feb, perhaps significant amount.
 
It was raining all the way up Boulder Canyon yesterday morning. Fortunately turned to Tahoe esq dense snow by about half way up the shelf road to Eldora... Currently mid 60's in mid-am in the lowlands of Denver metro this morning (normal is ~45 for a high in Feb)... Way, way too warm for early Feb.

Yea, apparently, it's a very warm "pineapple express". Was raining yesterday up to about 8,000 feet in the Tetons and rain in the Wasatch too, up to very high elevations. Unusual, I think, but not completely unheard of.
 
@kingslug if you ever want a geezer's tour of Snowbird let me know. I'll be on that hill quite a bit the rest of the winter. I also ski Solitude and Brighton a fair amount.
 
I have some days left on my passes at sbird.
Lot of days left for brighton.
Ill let you know. I have been dragged from one end of bird to the other for many years...but its been 5 years since ive been there...except for 2 weeks ago...got dragged around thunder bowl and other scary areas.
I was wasted by noon.
