Tonight’s RAW is the first televised event in the state of Utah in over a decade. But Salt Lake City is under a Winter Storm Advisory until 10 p.m. local time tonight, and numerous schools and state offices were either closed today or opted to close early. Nine inches of snow had been reported at Salt Lake City International Airport. As of 1:00 p.m. MST (3:00 EST), the Utah Highway Patrol had investigated 211 crashes within the state.
A WWE satellite truck driver tweeted his opinion on Salt Lake City’s snowstorm at 12:30 p.m. MST.
