Hydrologic Outlook issued October 8 at 3:13PM MDT by NWS Salt Lake City UT

October 8th, 3:13 PM — 6:00 PM

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

Diamond Campground is located in Diamond Fork Canyon, about 15 miles from Spanish Fork, Utah. The campground features two loops: Loop A has nice shade from cottonwoods while Loop B is more open with sagebrush and grasses. Diamond Fork Stream and Wanrhodes Creek run through the site, providing fishing opportunities for brown and cutthroat trout. An interpretive nature trail winds along the stream. The campground offers 38 single sites ($24/night), 22 double sites ($48/night), and multiple group sites ranging from 25 to 125 person capacity. Each site has a fire ring, picnic table, and cement pad; some Loop B sites include picnic shelters. Vault toilets and drinking water are provided. Reservations are available through Recreation.gov with first-come, first-served sites also available. Weekend stays require a 2-night minimum; holidays require 3 nights. Nearby attractions include Red Ledges Picnic Area with Diamond Fork Arch, and the popular Fifth Water Hot Springs accessible via a 2.5-mile trail with scenic views and hot pools of varying temperatures. Monks Hollow Trail for hiking, biking, and OHV riding begins 5 miles from the campground.
