❄️Did you know snowstorms can hit any time of year? In Oct. 1984, a lake-effect storm dropped nearly 2 feet of snow on the Salt Lake Valley — shutting down schools, roads & power. ⚡🚗🏫 Don’t get caught off guard! Stay prepared year-round 👉 @BeReadyUtah 💪

A Flood Watch is in effect for much of southeast Utah and southwest Colorado this evening through Saturday evening. Rainfall rates in excess of in inch per hour and widespread amounts over 1 to 2 inches for this event could lead to excess runoff in many vulnerable areas!
Potential for heavy rain Friday and Saturday. The highest local risk lies across southeast Utah and southwest Colorado where burn scars and other localized flooding is possible. Rock/mud slides may also occur from excess runoff along steep terrain.

Remnant tropical moisture will push into the area late Thursday. This moisture will linger through Friday before interacting with a cold front on Saturday that will bring widespread precipitation to most of the area. Flash flooding is possible across sensitive areas. #utwx #wywx
