Park employees were even pulling fish and turtles out of a field that got displaced from the flooding. This was not the only damage the storm caused in Canyon.
A Sunday evening drive quickly turned hazardous. Hail covered highway 217 and water rushed into the drains.
As the storm passed and the sun rose, the damage was revealed. Including erosion at Hunsley Rd. Paul Lindsey park also got its fair share of rain.Baseball fields were flooded, and the pond is encroaching on the land around it. A large tree lays sideways, a victim of the storm.
City park employees are now working to clean up the debris.
Neal Hinders the owner of Canyon Edge Plants says his plants and flowers were more fortunate, thanks to a little netting.
“There was hail on top of the cloth, oh I don’t know pounds and pounds,” Hinders said.“We came up with the crossbars and put some hail netting on the top and once we have that up in the spring then we can relax and sleep better at night,” Hinders said.
This time around there was no damage to his products.
Standing water is still present in Canyon, city officials want to remind citizens, to avoid the ground around sinkholes and eroded parts of streets as they are unstable.
