Jon Dunn ReportingGovernor Huntsman took to the skies today to get a birds-eye view of snowpacks, rivers and creeks across Utah.

For three hours, the Governor rode across northern Utah looking at the snow and creek flows, and he also received an education.

"I think it was nice we went with the Governor because we could educate him on our thoughts. Really it was more touching base to get a game plan for the state."

National Weather Service Hyrdrologist Brian McInerney was also on board. He says, for the most part, it's how he expected it to be, but there is a lot of snow.

"It does show we have really low, mid and high elevation snows across northern watersheds."

McInerney says come Monday there likely will be some flooding again in areas like Emigration, but it looks like Logan will be hit the hardest.
