HURRICANE, Utah — The city of Hurricane in far south-western Utah was cleaning up after declaring a state of emergency on Thursday, October 22. Reddish-brown flood water lapped into about 80 homes in a neighborhood and 50 recreational vehicles in an RV park.
Surreal scenes included a shipping container drifting slowly down a street. An evacuation order was issued for the Willow Wind RV Park in Hurricane. Videos posted online showed people in Hurricane leading horses to safety through murky floodwaters. Chelsea Field/AP Photo
