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

Pine Valley Group Campground is located on the Mirror Lake Scenic Byway (Highway 150) in the Uinta Mountains of northeastern Utah, within the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest. The campground sits at 7,400 feet elevation among dense stands of pines and aspens that provide excellent shade and stunning fall colors. Three group sites accommodate different party sizes: Site A holds up to 120 people, Site B accommodates 60 people, and Site C fits up to 140 people. Each site includes picnic and serving tables, grills, campfire circles, and large paved parking areas. Vault toilets and trash collection are provided. No potable water is available, so groups must bring their own. The area offers excellent recreational opportunities including fishing on the Lower Provo River, hiking, backpacking, and access to the High Uintas Wilderness from several nearby trailheads. ATVs are prohibited at this campground.
