Flood Watch issued March 9 at 1:52PM EDT until March 12 at 2:00PM EDT by NWS Burlington VT

Effective: Mon March 9, 2026, 1:52 PM
Expires: Tue March 10, 2026, 4:15 AM

Warm temperatures may melt snowpack and increase river flows. * WHAT...Flooding caused by a combination of rain, snowmelt, and ice jams is possible. * WHERE...All of northern New York and northern and central Vermont. * WHEN...Through Thursday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Excessive runoff from snowmelt and rainfall will cause sharp river rises, likely resulting in river ice break up. Ice jams will be possible, along with rapid onset flooding. Flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations will be possible and creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Mild temperatures will lead to rapid rises on area rivers through early this week. This will be followed by widespread rain Wednesday into Thursday. Rising rivers will cause river ice to break up and flow, potentially resulting in ice jams and associated flooding. As rain moves in Wednesday, the threat will turn more toward open water flooding for those waterways that have lost their ice. Any open water flooding will likely persist through Thursday. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared to take action should flooding develop.

* WHAT...Flooding caused by an ice jam continues. * WHERE...Portions of Franklin County, Vermont. * WHEN...Until 430 PM EDT Monday. * IMPACTS...Flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations is occurring. Depending on ice behavior, any release of the ice jam could result in sudden rises of water, leading to a rapid flooding situation. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - At 858 AM EDT, Enosburg Town Garage reported that Boston Post Road was flooded due to an ice jam. - Some locations that will experience flooding include... Enosburg Falls, Enosburg, Enosburg Falls Village, Berkshire, Sheldon, North Enosburg and East Berkshire. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
