SALT LAKE CITY — Thursday and Friday, areas of Utah will see an increased threat of flash flooding as the remnants of Tropical Storm Alberto move through.Risk for flash flooding will be highest as the most widespread rain will hit Utah by Friday. Then, the storm tapers off on Saturday, NWS reported.
"A lot of that moisture is going to come up into the Four Corners region," explained Hayden Mahan, a Meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Salt Lake City."There will be some isolated stuff on Thursday afternoon, closer to the four corners. But really the best chance for widespread precipitation is going to come on Friday afternoon."
Experts warned that the influx of rain will most likely impact slot canyons, dry washes, and areas near recent burn scars. Hikers and other recreators should consider changing their plans to avoid especially slot canyons over the next couple of days.
