Utah in :uncharted territory' with record-breaking snow, Gov. Cox warns
"I'm grateful for the water, even though my prayers have changed a little bit," the governor joked, referencing his call for Utahns to pray for rain to help the state in a mega-drought.
"We just crossed the 29-inch threshold for water," he said."So, 26 [inches] the all time record and we're now past 29. Looks like we’ll cross the 30-inch threshold by the end of this storm. We are literally in uncharted territory. We have no idea what to do with this much water, except we now pray it comes down slowly."
