I-80 EB @ 3250 E / East of Foothill / MP 127.97, SL live still — I-80 EB @ 3250 E / East of Foothill / MP 127.97, SL | Eastbound | Live still, Data: UDOT Traffic. Images refresh about every minute at the source.

This camera sits in the lower third of Parleys Canyon, frame 12 of 46 in the corridor's driving order sequence. Read it as one frame of a film: the frames behind you and ahead of you bracket it, and the surface change between them is the actual forecast for your drive. A single frame tells you about a spot; the sequence tells you about a storm.

Parleys Canyon runs salt lake city to park city, climbing toward Parleys Summit at about 7,000 feet. Cameras in the lower canyon are where valley weather lets go and canyon weather takes over; this is the last frame that still resembles the city forecast. When this frame disagrees with the corridor mouth, believe this one for the stretch around it and the highest frame for the drive as a whole.

The still refreshes about every minute at UDOT's source and shows the road surface, not the air above it. Snow visible on the frame edges but a clear lane means plows are winning this round; a white lane with no tracks means they are not, yet. Pair this frame with the corridor verdict at the top of the page, which carries the traction posting and any closure UDOT is reporting for I-80.
