SALT LAKE CITY — Multiple flood warnings in Utah were canceled Tuesday, alleviating fears of widespread damage, but officials warn that the cancellations don't mean flood risks and dangers are over just yet.
While some warnings were called off, the warning for Emigration Creek in Salt Lake City remains in effect with flood flows expected Tuesday and Wednesday night, and a peak on Thursday morning.
The warning for the Weber River near Plain City was one of two canceled.
Though the flood warning was lifted, the National Weather Service reports flows for the Weber River will be in the "action range" into next week, so residents should be watchful.

On Tuesday, the river was still in action range at 26.08 feet but the "flood stage" is categorized at 27 feet, so the waterway still had a ways to fill before flooding over.
Nearby in Ogden Canyon, Utah Highway Patrol troopers shut down both directions of traffic between mileposts 10-12 due to flooding.
Photos showed water puddling on the road and spilling off the edge underneath traffic barriers.
The flood warning for East Canyon Creek near Jeremy Ranch was also canceled Tuesday as flows were not expected to reach the criteria for flooding.
The creek was at just under 7 feet Tuesday afternoon and "action range" for the waterway is listed at 7.9 feet.
Other areas throughout Utah were shut down due to flooding and in an effort to protect residents.
In Logan, Trapper Park, located at 1497 South 1600 West was closed "until further notice" due to flood waters, the City of Logan wrote in a tweet.
Flood warnings and watches for many streams, creeks and rivers were issued Sunday night and Monday morning as warm temperatures rapidly melted snow.
The warnings and watches impacted the south fork of the Ogden River, the Sevier River near Hatch, Thistle Creek, Little Bear River at Paradise.
Little Bear River is forecast to reach flood stage Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday night, while the Sevier River should reach moderate flood stage peak Tuesday and Wednesday evening and continue through Friday night.
