Salt Lake City giving out thousands of sandbags to mitigate potential flooding
“We do this every year," city spokeswoman Chloe Morroni said."We do this throughout the summer, and it really is just helpful when folks have certain areas of their home that may be prone to flooding to be able to kind of, you know, corner that area off.”The city is already doing controlled water releases from reservoirs in anticipation of spring flooding, she said.
“We're just keeping a close eye on conditions," said Morroni."Every year we do monitor like this, so it's nothing out of the ordinary. We just are going to make sure that our systems run as smoothly as possible.”In anticipation of forecasted rain with tonight’s storm, we along with @bereadyslc and Salt Lake County are closely monitoring impacts to streams and the City’s drainage. @SLCPU has ~6,800 sandbags available for the public . People are welcome to take up to 10! pic.
