1	Synoptic and Mesoscale Structure of a Wasatch Winter Storm during IPEX IOP3 Jason C. Shafer and W. James Steenburgh
2	IPEX Field Experiment February 2000, focus northern Utah Mission – improve understanding of precipitation systems over Intermountain region Why? little research has investigated the their synoptic evolution and mesoscale structures over Intermountain region.
3	IPEX IOP-3 Highlights February 12^th and 13^th, 2000 Largest snowstorm in two years across Wasatch Mtns, 20 – 35” mountain snow Close to ~1” liquid at some lowland sites Unprecedented data set and analysis Objectives: document the synoptic evolution, mesoscale structure, and determine factors important for precipitation development and distribution across northern Utah
