Early October is usually too early for snow. The first winter storm is typically around Thanksgiving though. And it usually stops by March although, this year, we had a bad front come through in late April, but that's rare.
You also have to keep in mind that you're still in the desert there, and the desert just does not get much precipitation, frozen or otherwise. When it does snow, it melts fairly quickly and the roads are cleared even more quickly.
In other words, don't worry about it too much. You'd have to have pretty bad luck to have MV snowed out when you try to go. Zion or Bryce, yes, but not the Four Corners region.
