    Catharine DeLong still remembers how she felt after her first music vigil several years ago. “I can't believe they let me do that,” the Salt Lake City musician said. “I can't believe that they would let me come, sit next to the bedside of this vulnerable person in this moment that is so liminal and so tender.”DeLong is a harpist with a niche.

In preparation, the state hopes its expanded push to control wildfires with aircraft will help protect communities and firefighters. “It's a huge, huge investment.

The population is booming and climate change is making heat more intense and rain less reliable.

    After a historically dry winter, southern Utah is counting on the summer monsoon season to deliver some much-needed rain. And the latest forecast offers a glimmer of hope. The seasonal outlook from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration shows a slightly above-average chance the St. George area will get an active monsoon season that starts early, possibly before the end of June.

1. More reporters should consider covering rural areas and more newsrooms should see the value in rural beats. Would benefit journalism + the public. 2. Feels weird that “reporters” can refer to both people who cover small city council meetings and people who have talent agents.
