BREAKING! Utah: Cedar City Mayor Maile Edwards declared a State of Emergency as widespread flooding could be seen across the area. Crews were dispatched to assess the damage, which was extensive on both public and private property. Cars could be seen half-submerged underwater as streets throughout Cedar City flooded Monday after rain continued to roll through parts of southern Utah. The National Weather Service estimates almost two inches of rain had fallen in the city, causing basement flooding and numerous road closures. The American Red Cross has opened a shelter at the church building at 900 West Center Street for those unable to stay in their homes.

A massive homeless crisis. A massively underfunded police department. Struggling families. And what do the genius city leaders decide to dump taxpayer funds into? $20k trashcans.

Russian athletes take gold and U.S. women take silver in gymnastics team finals.

Biles left the competition floor at Ariake Gymnastics Centre after the first of four rotations in the team event Tuesday night. When she returned she removed her hand grips, indicating she wouldn’t take her scheduled turn on the uneven bars.

Biles, a five-time medalist at the 2016 Rio Games, had experienced problems with her vault in her warmup. Her difficulties returned when the competition began. She did a relatively simple Yurchenko vault with 1½ twists and landed in a deep crouch, almost sitting, before she took a big hop forward. After the U.S. women completed their vaults, Biles and a trainer left and went backstage.
