remains in effect throughout most of southern and central Utah Friday, a day after major rain storms caused flash flooding in several spots across the region, affecting residents, campers and visitors to the area's national parks.
While the alert only covers the bottom half of the state, KSL meteorologist Matt Johnson adds that the potential for flash floods will be "elevated" statewide. He said the series of scattered thunderstorms and showers are expected to continue late Friday. Cedar City firefighters helped pump water out of the jail and hospital. Water got into the operating room at the hospital, causing surgeries for Friday to be rescheduled while crews clean up the flooded areas.
State Route 24 was closed for a while in the park because of water running across the road near mile marker 88, but it has since reopened. The Hickman Bridge Trail was also closed for a time due to flooding. Shafer said this happens often during storms, especially during monsoon season. No injuries were reported.
