Here's your local news at a glance for Monday, the 12th of May.
Good morning, Ogden.
Residents in Ogden have seen brown water coming from their faucets for weeks and say the city has not fixed the issue.
City officials explained that discolored water can come from water line breaks — or from minerals being stirred up when the source water changes.
Angela Wilson hosts a weekly free pop-up flower stand in Ogden where she and her sister Camie Walworth give away bouquets to honor their mother—Paula Bartholomew, who passed away in August 2023—and last Thursday all 96 vases were claimed by neighbors drawn from posts and passersby.
After Sunday's storms brought high winds across Utah, Professor Derek Mallia warned that dust from local quarries and the Great Salt Lake lifted PM10 particles that can harm the lungs and heart.
He said the particles will settle by tomorrow—so residents should limit heavy outdoor activity until air quality improves.
