LYNDON, Vt. (AP) — Vermont’s governor says the latest storms to hit the state have undone much of the cleanup and recovery work done since its last major bout of flooding only weeks ago, and he is calling on residents to “stick together” as more heavy rains hit northeastern and central Vermont on Wednesday. Thunderstorms on Tuesday brought another round of heavy flooding that washed away roads, crushed vehicles, pushed homes off their foundations and required at least two dozen boat rescues in northeastern Vermont. Some areas got more than 8 inches of rain. More heavy rains arrived Wednesday with flash-flooding possible in some already inundated areas.
