Between new technology, funding and the Legislature's backing, “Utah is climbing its way to one of the best programs in the world,” said the director of the state's cloud seeding program.

Russ Scholl's "periodic table of snow" contains more than 100 different slang names for snow.

St. George is on track for its driest winter ever, and southwest Utah’s snowpack stands at record lows.

Water experts say cloud seeding deserves more funding and research to measure its impact on the drought-stricken Colorado River basin.

Scientists expect La Niña to start by the end of this year. That could fuel a drier-than-normal winter and spell trouble for Utah drought and snowmelt going into 2025.

The Colorado River starts as mountain snow, but climate change has made it harder to predict how much will flow into streams every year. A new study says springtime sun, rain and plants could make it easier.

New findings about sublimation explain how snow is lost to evaporation before it can melt. The data can help form better predictions about water supplies from the Colorado River.

Even after a wet winter, the runoff that’s forecast to flow downstream in Utah’s Colorado River Basin looks underwhelming compared to snowpack levels.

Salt Lake County Sheriff Rosie Rivera says teams uncovered the bodies Friday morning. The men — 23-year-old Andrew Cameron of Utah and 32-year-old Austin Mallet of Montana — were killed in a snowslide Thursday morning in the area of Lone Peak.

Two backcountry skiers were killed and one was rescued after an avalanche Thursday in the mountains outside of Salt Lake City.

A company spun out of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory began survey flights over the Uinta Mountains this year. Water managers are already using the data to manage Colorado River water wisely.

A new study from University of Colorado Boulder researchers finds a strong chance that precipitation will make the next two decades on the Colorado River wetter than the last.
