Hydrologic Outlook issued October 8 at 3:13PM MDT by NWS Salt Lake City UT
ESFSLC The remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel will merge with a fall-like storm system over the western United States, bringing moderate to heavy rainfall and a resulting threat of flooding. Widespread rainfall of 1 to 3 inches is expected, locally in excess of 3 inches, particularly across south aspects of southern Utah mountains, between late Saturday and Monday morning. Expect many area waterways including streams, rivers, normally dry washes, creeks, and slot canyons to have rising, fast flows by Sunday evening. Current forecasts do not bring any rivers to flood stage, but this will be monitored as the fine details of heavy rain bands become more confident. Those with activities near rivers, streams, creeks and recent burn scars should closely monitor the forecast over the next several days. Those with outdoor plans Sunday onward that include any travel near waterways across Utah should consider alternate plans. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will remain possible through at least Wednesday. While the rainfall rates with these additional rounds of precipitation will generally be lower, areas that receive significant precipitation during the weekend will be extra sensitive to any additional rainfall.
About
Clover Spring Campground sits in the foothills of the Oniqui Mountains at 6,000 feet elevation, offering a peaceful retreat from the Wasatch Front. The campground features a natural spring-fed stream running through the property, shaded by cottonwood trees and surrounded by forested terrain. Two of the ten individual sites are equestrian-capable for visitors bringing horses. The campground provides basic amenities including accessible vault toilets, fire rings, and picnic tables at each site. There is no potable water available; the stream water requires treatment before consumption. Campers must pack out all trash. Maximum equipment length is 30 feet, and individual sites accommodate up to 8 people with 2 vehicles. The reservable group site handles up to 50 people with 10 vehicles. Quiet hours are enforced between 10 PM and 6 AM, with a 14-day stay limit. The campground borders private land, so visitors should respect posted signs and keep gates closed. This area is not recommended for OHV use.
