What the National Weather Service wrote

Active snowmelt in the Salt River Range caused a flood along a normally dry ditch in Star Valley Ranch. The narrow drainage near Prater Canyon brought enough water to wash out part of a road and three culverts. The high water also exposed and damaged a water line in the community.

The wider storm

The warmest temperatures of the season led to increased snowmelt along the west side of the Salt River Range. The water flowed fast and high enough to cause flooding in Star Valley Ranch.

Began near Star Valley Ranch (42.9931, -110.9709).
