Uuummmm.... I'm not ok with this! All my beautiful trees and flowers that have bloomed are weighed down by snowman making snow. I guess it's a Netflix binge day! #ohutah #crazyweather #snow #spring

In the church's April general conference, Elder Quentin L. Cook of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said 85 percent of Latter-day Saints live within 200 miles of a temple.

Most of the 14 temples under construction won't make a major impact on that percentage for several reasons, both religious and statistical.

First, bringing temples closer to all members isn't the purpose of every temple announcement. Some areas have high concentrations of members who max out a temple's capacity.

"A lot of these (temples under construction) are not reaching out to new areas much," Plewe said.

Temples in Payson and Provo, for example, serve areas where temples are in heavy use and will operate at or near full capacity once they open.

NO SHIT that a lot of the new temples aren't about reaching new areas. They're building a SECOND temple in Provo, which really tells you all you need to know. This bar graph from the article (above) is particularly revealing.
