Vermont faces potential flash and river flooding as Hurricane Debby remnants approach, threatening with up to five inches of rain, particularly impacting regions still recovering from previous storms.
Vermont's vulnerability to flash floods has risen due to climate change, with intense storms pouring excessive rain on a landscape that funnels water into torrents, posing threats to communities and infrastructures.
The state's topography, beneficial for skiing in winter, becomes a hazard during potent summer storms as streams flow into narrow valleys, contributing to the heightened risk of flooding.
