"Flooding, while a simple word, conjures images to all. To some, it may be a record flood, such as the Santa Clara River flooding in St. George or flooding which has occurred in southeast Utah before. To others, it may be a rush of water in a desert wash that almost swept their car and them away. Floods come in all shapes and sizes and can arrive without a moment's notice or with a slow creep. Regardless of how they come, floods over the long term kill more people in the United States than any other type of severe weather. The goals of the campaign are to educate the citizens of Utah on hazards associated with floods and flash f loods as well as what can be done to save lives and protect property." This column will cover d topics during the next few days.
