    St. George Monsoon on Sunday, July 15, 2012

    Just some footage of the rain down by Snow Canyon on Sunday. Apparently locals say it rarely rains like that. We were in the thick of it but I forgot my camera. This short footage in the beginning and at the gas station was when it was coming down the hardest.

    Nice footage. There was some crazy stuff going on down dixie drive as well. kids with boogie boards surfing down the streets. Wish I had my camera handy to catch the footage.

    Also was pretty amazing watching the huge hail stones bounce off the lawn in 100 degree weather.
    Your safety is not my responsibility.

    Good capture! I miss the floods in the desert after moving to Northern Utah. A rare treat to witness.

    We must be neighbors. I shot video from my home off Snow Canyon Pkwy. Our Street was a muddy river from curb to curb.

    We were staying at a friends. They live about 5 houses from the Halfway Wash/Turtle Wall/Paradise Rim trail head in the Paradise Canyon sub. Sweet spot.

    I bet that was! We missed the whole thing. Twice now when we have traveled north STG has flooded, we keep missing the action. Friend of mine, her car flooded she had to go use my carpet cleaner to get water out. Guess it was parked on street, water pooled between her car and curb. Poor thing her first car she has only had it about a week.
