Flood Threat Increasing

Hey everyone,
     I would have had an update out sooner but I had an ambulance call. Anyway, on to the weather. Flood Watches have been issued for all of Northern New York, All of New Hampshire, and All of Vermont except Grand Isle County, for the potential of minor river and stream flooding, as well as Lake Champlain due to mainly snow melt. To add insult to injury of the already swollen rivers a half to one inch of rain will fall across the entire area. Already up to three quarters of an inch has fallen, mainly across the western slopes of the green mountains and southern Vermont, as well as Essex County New York. Other areas are significantly less.
     After a significant break in the action, rain has filled back in across much of the area. Below is a map of how much precipitation has fallen as of 6:45PM 4/11/08 and then how much rain is forecasted, and a map showing areas where flooding is a higher threat...







     Just a note, I would like to apologize for the delay on this post. I began working on the maps and stuff around 6:45PM and began typing this post at around 9:15PM (Its now 2:30AM) due to an ambulance call, I then was working on it, and had yet again another 2 ambulance calls. So I am sorry for the delay. I will attempt an update to the current totals map in a few minutes, as long as I dont have another ambulance call!!!
