SALT LAKE CITY — Last month's precipitation, led by hurricane remnants and other subtropical moisture, created flooding in parts of Utah, record-high statewide fall soil moisture levels and helped chip away at the state's drought. It was also the most precipitation Utah has received in one October in a little more than a half-century, according to new federal climate data.
