OVERVIEW:
     I am really not going to get into extreme detail about the rain we have had over the past several weeks. As you know though, we have had a lot of rain, up to 8-15 inches of rain, across much of the region. And unfortunately this rainy streak that we had a break from today, will not be the case for tomorrow. We will be back under the influence of an upper level low pressure system for tomorrow being Sunday and also on Monday. The National Weather Service has issued a Flash Flood Watch for Clinton, and Essex Counties in Vermont, and All of Vermont, except for Bennington, and Windham Counties.
     The state has been hit by sporadic flash flooding over the past week, and hardest hit has been Addison County Vermont, where devastating Flash Floods took place. Once again this area looks to be under the gun. The National weather service is saying that 1 - 2 inches of rain will fall from this system over the entire area with isolated higher totals in any thunderstorms that form due to them moving very slowly. I don't agree on this, looking at radar trends, and model guidance to me Central and Southern Vermont will have the best chance for any Flash Flooding, and will have a chance of 1 - 2 inches of rain. From what I see the heaviest rain will fall along and well south of a line from Central St. Lawrence County, NY to Southern Franklin County, NY, to much of Essex County, NY across the lake into Addison, Orange, and Central and Southern Washington Counties in Vermont, across the Connecticut river into Southern Grafton County, NH across all of Belknap County, NH and much of Strafford County, NH.
     I have not made up any maps for this post. I will likely not get any more posts in until late tomorrow night, or perhaps Monday, as I am going to be in my brothers wedding tomorrow. There is a slight chance I can get one in early tomorrow morning, but that's about it. Never-the-less stay tuned to your local media, and weather outlets as well as this blog, for further updates.
