The National Weather Service has forecast more rain for Thursday and Friday, which will add to already swollen rivers and streams throughout Vermont.

NWS has issued a Flash Flood Watch for the entire state – which means conditions may develop that cause rivers and streams to rise rapidly and culverts become overwhelmed in a short period of time. Please monitor forecasts throughout today and tonight and heed warnings from officials.

The Vermont Division of Emergency Management and Homeland Security, and the National Weather Service are advising those in low-lying areas to monitor rivers and streams and evacuate to higher ground if necessary or if advised to do so. Simply put – stay away from floodwaters or any rivers that are swelled.

You should also prepare yourself and your family for the possibility of flooding.

Flood preparation tips:
Never drive or walk through floodwaters. Unseen washouts or unexpectedly fast running water can carry away an automobile. Floodwaters also often contain contaminants like wastewater, fuel, or other harmful liquids and solids so stay away if you can.
Monitor radio, television, and newspapers as well as web sites for flood warnings.
Move any vehicles or equipment like lawn mowers or tractors to higher ground. Flooded vehicles pollute the water with fuel.
If you do evacuate your home, turn off your circuit breaker before you leave and have your home’s electrical system inspected by a professional before you return.

For road conditions call 5-1-1 or visit 511vt.com. For personal assistance and resources call 2-1-1; 2-1-1 is a service of the United Way.
