Description

During the spring of 2011, Northern Utah recevied record wet conditions dating back to 1872. Combined with near record snowpack, the rainfall and melting snow produced widespread flooding, spawning 45 flood warnings across the area. As we move forward to the 2012 water year, we find a different story, with record dry conditions dominating the first quarter of the year. Come out on Tuesday morning and listen to Brian McInerney talk about the 2012 water year hydrologic forecast, and the 2011 record breaking runoff.
