The National Weather Service in Burlington has extended the
* Flood Warning for...
northeastern Chittenden County in northwest Vermont
southern Franklin County in northwest Vermont
LaMoille County in northwest Vermont
* until 645 PM EDT
* at 1233 PM EDT the LaMoille river near Cambridge... along with many
rural streams across northeastern Chittenden and western LaMoille
County continue to run high from last night's excessive
rainfall. Recent river gage data and coordination with local
emergency management indicate the LaMoille river continues to rise
and approach flood stage in the Village of Cambridge. Thus high
water may impact State Route 15 at the wrong way bridge with
closures possible. With additional light to moderate rainfall
affecting the warned area into the afternoon hours... the LaMoille
river and other small streams will continue to run high. Thus
highways and some local roads may still see additional flooding.
Locations in the warning include but are not limited to Underhill
and Cambridge.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
Do not go on... in... or near rivers and streams. The high water levels
and fast flows can create deadly consequences for persons who venture
too close and become caught in floodwaters by accident... or
intentionally try to swim or boat on flooded waterways. When you put
yourself in harms way the life you risk is not only your own... you
also risk the lives of Rescue personnel.
A Flood Warning means that flooding is imminent or has been reported.
