Event narrative (NOAA)
Devastating flash flooding occurred across much of Rutland county, mainly along and east of Route 7 and especially in the foothills of the western slopes of the Green Mountains, such as Rutland, Killington, Mendon, Wallingford, Brandon, Chittenden and Pittsford. Dozens of roads (state and local), including Routes 4, 7, 103 and 155, as well as several bridges were washed out or suffered severe damage. Several communities between Rutland and Windsor counties were isolated due to loss infrastructure. Dozens of homes and businesses experienced severe flooding and two fatalities occurred in Rutland-Mendon vicinity.
