...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON...
* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
possible.
* WHERE...A portion of Utah, including the following areas, Castle
Country, Central Mountains, Eastern Juab/Millard Counties, San
Rafael Swell, Sanpete Valley, Sevier Valley, Wasatch Plateau/Book
Cliffs, Bryce Canyon Country, Capitol Reef National Park and
Vicinity, Glen Canyon Recreation Area/Lake Powell, South Central

Canyonlands, Lower Washington County, Southwest Utah and Zion
National Park. This also includes recent burn scars such as

* WHEN...Through Monday afternoon.
* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, dry washes, slot canyons, and other low-lying and
flood-prone locations such as slickrock areas and recent burn
scars. Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Flooding may
occur in poor drainage and urban areas.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Anomalously high moisture from the remnants of Tropical Storm
Rachel will continue to impact the region. While this is expected
to be a long duration rainfall event, scattered instances of
heavier rainfall rates are expected with stronger storms yielding
flash flooding concerns given saturated soils and prior burn
scars.

drainage and urban areas. Extensive street flooding and flooding of
creeks and rivers are possible.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Moisture associated with the remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel
will continue to spread into northern Utah producing a prolonged
rainfall event. In particular, moisture interacting with a
frontal boundary across far northern Utah may yield locally
heavier rainfall totals compared to other locations. As a result,
areal flooding is possible across northern Utah.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood

to take action should flooding develop.
