The first image is of the Pavilion building. The governor, state treasurer and attorney general have their offices in it. The second image is how high the water got on State St. looks like it was 5’-6’ above street level. The last picture is the inside of the Aubuchon Hardware store. Completely gutted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreaves Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 The smells were pretty bad in places. Mold and mildew, wet carpet etc. it seems like businesses got the worst of it in Montpelier while people’s homes got it worse in Barre. The worst hit was the poorer part of town. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamarack Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 From late April thru July 2, nearly every event exceeded the forecasts. Since then, it's gone just the opposite, like yesterday's 0.16" after a 1/2-1" forecast. We're currently averaging about 0.3"/week. Water table remains high (Sandy River flow at 75th percentile) but the top 12" is drying out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
