ST. GEORGE — Heavy rains left the road leading to the St. George Regional Airport from the Southern Parkway flooded over Wednesday evening.
Flooding across Airport Parkway was reported over social media by the St. George Police Department shortly after 6 p.m.
It was initially reported that the airport was closed due to the flooding, which David Cordero, a spokesman for the city of St. George, later confirmed to be incorrect and possibly a result of miscommunication. The original social media post has since been deleted.
Weather nonetheless did impact travel into the airport as some flights were delayed – up to two hours in one instance – yet arrived safely at their destination.
