Tropical Aftermath and UAC Survey
Blue skies prevail over the Wasatch Front this morning, marking an end to our latest flirtation with the tropics. This weeks monsoon surge produced some incredible flooding and videos, such as the one below from Shane Dukeman in the Virgin River Gorge (Warning: Disturbing scenes and strong language). The status of the man who disappears with the van is unknown, but officials in Nevada report no deaths.

I heard that there was flood-related damage in two different places on I-15 (some in the Virgin River Gorge and also near Moapa, a little north of Las Vegas). I believe that this one is the Moapa video. I was trying to find some good photos of the aftermath, just curious to see if I-15 was completely washed out or exactly what happened there.
