Please stay clear of water coming down during spring runoff. While the water seems fun there are hazards that come with spring runoff. The water is extremely cold & carries lots of debris, bacteria & animal waste. It only takes about 6" of water to knock someone off their feet.

How beautiful is Provo this time of year? The kaleidoscope of fall colors seen throughout the valley and up Provo Canyon is just breathtaking. There are so many beautiful mountain views, scenic byways, and places to enjoy the abundant and colorful fall foliage.
Merry Christmas, Provo! We want to thank all those that are keeping us safe and comfortable today and always - those at the Provo Police Department, Provo Fire & Rescue and those keeping water and power going at Provo City Power and Provo City Public Works. 🎄♥️✨

Over the next few weeks, the Provo River is also expected to see a substantial increase in flows. The high flows will be extremely dangerous, cold, and swift. Please maintain a safe distance and keep children and pets away from the water.

The new Provo Target will carry all of the well-known Target brands and merchandise seen at any other location as well as a large grocery section with a full pharmacy and more. All in all, it’s something residents of Provo have been excitedly waiting for.
Are you staying a “Kaufusi” away? To reinforce the importance of proper social distancing, Mayor Kaufusi enlisted the help of her two six-foot-plus NFL football player sons—the perfect human social-distancing rulers.
