LYNDON, Vt. (AP) — Heavy rain has caved in roads, forced some homes off their foundations and led to about two dozen rescues in northeastern Vermont. It happened nearly three weeks after many farmers and residents in the state were hit by flooding from the remnants of Hurricane Beryl. The National Weather Service in Burlington says some areas got 6 to more than 8 inches of rain starting late Monday and saw flash flooding. Flood warnings were in effect through Tuesday afternoon. Most of the rain fell Lyndon, Lyndonville and in St. Johnsbury, about 35 miles northeast of the state capital of Montpelier. More rain is in the forecast for the region on Wednesday.
