Cooldown slows Utah's snowmelt, but 3 flood warnings remain in place this week

SALT LAKE CITY — Utah's spring snowmelt slowed down a bit over the weekend, as scattered showers and cooler temperatures impacted the state.

Flood watches are also in place for the Cache Valley and the northern part of the Wasatch Front. The agency advises that excessive runoff could lead to more flooding in areas close to the Little Bear River below Hyrum Reservoir, as well near the lower Weber River by Plain City. The alert for the Little Bear River continues through at least Friday afternoon, while the lower Weber River alert remains in place until further notice.About 18.

Most of the remaining snowpack is in northern Utah. The Weber-Ogden and the Provo-Utah Lake-Jordan snowpack basins currently hold the most water among the state's basins. High temperatures along the Wasatch Front are currently forecast to top out in the low 70s through the rest of the workweek, which is a few degrees warmer than Saturday or Sunday but very close to normal for this point in the year. High temperatures are expected to top out in the mid-60s in the Cache Valley.
