The AccuWeather Bands separate high temperature zones for the day. Light rain fell in the desert Southwest. It remained below zero in the northern Plains and the upper Midwest, but not as cold as it had been in the past few days. Temperatures in southwestern Pennsylvania, hard hit by floods caused by a sudden thaw and heavy rains, were expected to rise into the 40s today. "That's what we need to get things dried out," said Roy Shipley, the director of emergency services in Fayette County, Pa., site of ' many a muddy basement. A low pressure system moving out of the central Rockies and into the central Plains was expected to produce snow in the Rockies from southern Utah to central Colorado, and the higher elevations of Arizona to northern New Mexico. As the system moves into the Plains, light rain should fall from northern Texas to Kansas. A light, thin band of freezing rain was anticipated across portions of the upper Midwest, northern Missouri and north central Illinois, making roads treacherous. A few light snow showers were also forecast for New England this morning. It was a balmy 69 degrees in Miami at 4 a.m., and a robust 17 , ' V. V VV,Vv r"5.

In the Utah County towns of Payson and Springville, about 50 miles south of Salt Lake, five inches of new snow was reported by early today. Winds of up to 35 mph were propelling the storm on its southern course, weather officials said. Meantime, accumulated snow and warmer temperatures brought warnings of avalanche conditions in the state's mountains. "It's like putting a cast-iro- n fry- ing pan on a package of potato chips," said Bruce Tremper with the Utah Avalanche Forecast Center. He said there is little avalanche danger within ski areas, which regularly practice avalanche control techniques, but the remote areas frequented by some snowmobilers were hazardous. "They are the biggest danger these days," said Tremper,. noting that snowmobiles cover 100 times the area a skier can, thus raising the chance of triggering an avalanche. On Saturday, the center back-count- received several reports ry of avalanche activity, most outside the ski areas and outside the Cot- tonwood canyons east of Salt Lake. In the Ogden area, 35 miles to the north, authorities said there was one complete burial. pUMWIIMMIIIlllMMMIHIHMH ..1111 I I "aw vijiiuiiiHMMWMiffiKniiiiiiiiminiiiiiiiaiiiniiBi IB. 1 IMIHTTlll MIM "umiiiimiibi 'f.
