...Showers with locally heavy rainfall will move across south
central and eastern Vermont through 4 pm...

At 1 pm...a broken line of showers with locally heavy rainfall was
located from southern Addison and northwest Rutland counties
across central-eastern Washington county into Caledonia county
moving east-northeast. Some of these areas earlier today witnessed
1 to 1.5 inches of rainfall and there is the potential of another
half inch to perhaps an inch of rainfall.

Main impacts will be poor visibility, ponding of water on roads
and poor drainage issues. However, be alert for possible localized
street flooding, especially in poor drainage urban areas.

Remember...never cross a flooded roadway. Turn around, don`t
drown. If you run across rising water, seek higher ground.

These heavy rain showers with the possibility of some embedded
thunder will exit Vermont by 4 pm.
