Areal Flood Warning

Statement as of 2:54 AM EDT on May 24, 2013

Expires 8:45 AM EDT on May 24, 2013


The National Weather Service in Burlington has issued a

* Flood Warning for...
northeastern Chittenden County in northwest Vermont
southern Franklin County in northwest Vermont
LaMoille County in northwest Vermont

* until 845 am EDT

* at 249 am EDT rain was coming to an end... however runoff and
flooding will continue through sunup. Damage from earlier flash
flooding will continue to be felt in Cambridge... Underhill...
Jericho... and Essex. Flooding on the Browns river will move
downstream through Essex and Westford to Fairfax. The LaMoille
river will leave its banks from Jeffersonville through Cambridge
to Fairfax.

Persons who normally travel on Route 15 between Cambridge and
Burlington should seek an alternate Route for their morning commute.

If you encounter flooding... seek higher ground immediately. When you
can do so safely please report any flooding to the National Weather
Service by calling toll free... 1 800 8 6 3 4 2 7 9... or by submitting
a storm report at weather.Gov/Burlington.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

Stay away from flood waters. Move to higher ground if you are
threatened by flooding or are directed by emergency officials. Do not
drive into areas where the water covers the roadway... the Road may be
washed away beneath the water surface... and it only takes a few
inches of flowing water to carry away your vehicle. Most flood deaths
occur in automobiles... make the smart choice... turn around... dont
drown.

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the
dangers of flooding.

A Flood Warning means that flooding is imminent or has been reported.

Flash Flood Watch

Statement as of 4:12 PM EDT on May 23, 2013

Expires 8:00 AM EDT on May 24, 2013


... Flash Flood Watch remains in effect through Friday morning...

The Flash Flood Watch continues for

* portions of northern New York and Vermont... including the
following areas... in northern New York... eastern Clinton...
eastern Essex... southeastern St. Lawrence... southern
Franklin... western Clinton and western Essex. In Vermont...
Caledonia... eastern Addison... eastern Chittenden... eastern
Franklin... eastern Rutland... Essex... Grand Isle... LaMoille...
Orange... Orleans... Washington... western Addison... western
Chittenden... western Franklin... western Rutland and Windsor.

* Through Friday morning

* thunderstorms this evening and tonight will have the potential
to produce rainfall rates of 1 to 2 inches an hour. These storms
will be training... or moving over the same area... and this will
increase the threat for flash flooding.

* Flash flooding can occur quickly... thus roads can flood in a
very short period of time. Small rivers and streams can also
rise rapidly... and culverts can fill up or become blocked by
debris quickly. All of these situations can lead to flooding in
a short period of time and create locally dangerous conditions.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Flash Flood Watch means that conditions may develop that lead
to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation.

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should flash flood warnings be issued.
