Lyska Emerson said she’s been dealing with rushing water outside her home since Easter Sunday. Since then, water levels have only gotten higher, especially within the last two days.Her home is trapped behind multiple barricades of sandbags. The driveway is completely covered by creekwater, making pulling into her garage now impossible.
All the way at the bottom of the canyon, water from that same creek gushes out of the culvert at Utah’s Hogle Zoo. Before this spring, the water was just a trickle. The zoo had a flood drill a few weeks ago. Eames said areas like the African Savanna are most at-risk. The Salt Lake City Department of Public Utilities tweeted that residents might see water covering roadways, but the department does not “anticipate significant impacts.”“We don’t really know what to anticipate, how much more runoff we’re going to have and how rapid,” said Emerson.
