Utah Family’s Desperate Fight Against Floodwaters

Intense thunderstorms unleashed a deluge on Utah, transforming multiple communities into flooded nightmares.

Orem bore the brunt of the storm, with a family narrowly escaping as floodwaters crashed through their home.

The downpour was accompanied by severe hail, with some areas accumulating up to five feet of ice, blocking entrances and overwhelming garages.

Basements and ground floors across the region were inundated, prompting officials to classify the event as a “greater-than-100-year storm.”

Even the Orem Skate Park was transformed into a temporary lake, showcasing the sheer force of the water.
