SALT LAKE CITY — Thunderstorms raging across Utah on Saturday caused homes to flood in Salt Lake City. The Salt Lake City Fire Department said flooding was reported in the area of 2000 West and 800 North. "Please avoid the area if possible until conditions improve," the fire department said. "City and County departments are actively responding to contain the flooding and minimize further impact." KSL determined on scene that at least five homes had been significantly flooded. Salt Lake City Public Works said county water pumps for the nearby canal and Salt Lake County water facility don't normally run on weekends, and when crews turned them on, only one was functional. The Downtown Farmers Market was also canceled due to lightning strikes coming down near Pioneer Park and traffic signals being affected as well, Downtown Alliance SLC said in an email. Other areas affected by Saturday's rain included Tooele County, where a flash flood warning was in effect for residents.
