WEATHER UPDATE for NORthEAST US

July 11, 2023

So far, the Catskill Mountains in southern NY and the Green Mountains in VT have experienced the most severe impacts, with more than 5 inches of rain in 24 hours. Vermont’s capital, Montpelier, is under several feet of water from flooding on the Winooski River. The river levels in Rutland, Montpelier, and Johnson, VT have exceeded their peak. The crest is now progressing downstream towards Johnsonville and Burlington, VT, which is anticipated to peak before the day's end Eastern Time.

On the eastern side of the state, the Connecticut River is already experiencing minor flooding as far down as northern CT. The forecasts predict a single crest moving downstream, expected to reach Massachusetts on Wednesday and Connecticut on Thursday. We have scheduled SAR imagery acquisitions along this river through the entire duration of the event.

 No substantial rainfall is expected until at least midday Thursday, but the possibility of rain increases as we move into the weekend, with forecasts indicating the likelihood of 1-2 inches of rain, and up to 3 inches in local areas. Given the recent weather patterns of rain and flooding, combined with other incidents from the past few weeks, there is an increased risk of further flooding.
