Selected from the Digital Public Library of America's 7 image records catalogued for this county. Every one shown here carries a public-domain status or a licence that permits reuse on a site that carries advertising; non-commercial, share-alike and restricted images are excluded. The selection is spread across the county's towns (at most eight per town), so no single institution's bulk upload crowds out the rest. Each opens the holding library's record, and the complete set at the Digital Public Library of America is one click away.

Flown by the U.S. Geological Survey between 1937 and 1989, the Aerial Photo Single Frames collection is the definitive mid-century view of the land: fields, roads and rivers as the camera saw them. The Survey holds 2,377 frames inside the rectangle that bounds this county; the 48 frames below were taken over the county itself, chosen across the decades of flights (at most four a year from that rectangle), so one flight cannot crowd out the rest. The full set is free to browse and download at EarthExplorer under the dataset Aerial Photo Single Frames.

When	Event	Place named	Harm	What the report says
June 2001	Lightning	Fairview	1 hurt	A 26-year old man was struck by lightning while golfing at a course near Fairview. A medical helicopter transported him to a hospital in Salt Lake City. The lightning bolt reportedly went in through his head and out through his hip. He was treated and later released.
September 2002	Tornado (F2)	Manti	$2,000,000	An F2 tornado began one mile south-southwest of Manti and moved northeast through Southeast Manti. The first mile of the tornado path was across open land, however the tornado produced some remarkable damage at the start. A 10X12 foot pioneer building was lifted, rotated 90 degrees, and moved 8 feet before being dropped back to the ground. At the south end of Manti, the tornado struck the Anderson Lumber business and did substantial damage. A 40 foot semi-trailer, loaded with insulation, was lifted and thrown onto it's side approximately 35 to 40 feet away. A large amount of debris, along with a 10X10 foot wooden shed, was thrown across Highway 89 and over the hill some 200 to 300 feet away. The wide swath of the tornado did considerable damage as it moved through the residential area in Southeast Manti. As the tornado exited the residential area, where some of the heaviest damage occurred, a 26 foot camp trailer was lifted and thrown to the west-northwest some 150 to 200 feet and disintegrated. The tornado continued across open farmland another half a mile or so before dissipating near the mountains. It has been determined that this was a high-end F2 tornado, with winds as high as 157 mph. The distance traveled was 2.75 miles, and the width was 800 feet. Time on the ground was approximately 15 minutes. Estimated damage is around $2,000,000, but could still go higher. Amazingly, there were no injuries.

May 2015	Flash Flood	Centerfield	$100,000	Heavy rain caused widespread flash flooding in the cities of Gunnison and Centerfield, with an approximate total of 30 homes and businesses sustaining some damage from the flood waters. About another 100 homes experienced yard flooding. Most damaged homes had minor damage to basements or lower levels. In addition, portions of the Gunnison Market grocery store were flooded, and some of the inventory was damaged.
July 2012	Flash Flood	Fountain Green	$100,000	A large debris flow occurred at the Wood Hollow burn scar. This debris flow damaged multiple homes, with two homes in particular receiving significant damage. The main damage was caused by mud flowing into basements, with one home having muddy water pooled as much as 8 feet deep in the basement. In addition, the debris crossed over State Route 132 and closed the road for several hours.
June 2011	Flood	Axtell	$100,000	The Sevier River flooded in Sanpete County, with many roads damaged in the Gunnison and Centerfield area. Water was a foot deep along parts of the Clarion Road, damaging both the road and a nearby hunting club. There was extensive flooding along the Gunnison Farmers Freeway, with some road and bridge damage in that area. Damage was also reported along River Bridge Road in the Fayette area.
