Utah has a real flash flood setup today.
WPC has a Moderate risk of excessive rainfall in place, covering about 148,000 people. The terrain there is the story: canyon country and dry washes can take a heavy storm and turn it into fast-rising water in minutes. Good day to stay out of slot canyons and narrow drainages.
Draining into the Colorado River, yes? Which needs it badly.
