...Localized Flooding Possible This Afternoon And Tonight... The threat of moderate to heavy rainfall exists over much of the North Country this afternoon through early Friday morning. Rainfall totals from the northern Adirondacks eastward across the Champlain Valley and remainder of Vermont are expected to be in the one to two inch range. Most larger rivers will be able to handle rainfall of this magnitude and flooding is not expected. However...sharp rises on smaller rivers and streams is likely and this could lead to localized flooding of roads and fields. Use caution when traveling on roads covered by water...especially at night...as it is difficult to know how impacted a road may be by the heavy rainfall. Stay weather aware today through Friday morning given the threat for heavy rain that could lead to minor flooding across a good deal of the North Country.
