When Will This End??

[Dean Romig]

My, and many, many others’ hunting areas will be severely affected…

This continues to be just CRAZY

Rats. That’s not far from my New Hampshire hunting grounds.

[Garry L Gordon]

Lots of weather issues across the country for sure.

[Chris Pope]

Those flash floods can wipe out a woodcock covert in less than an hour. Hopefully to be rebuilt by mother nature for someone in the next generation...

[Mike Poindexter]

Memphremagog will be as big as Champlain if it keeps up. Send some of it out west, please!

[Dean Romig]

The utter devastation in parts of Vermont is just mind boggling.

Tornadoes are devastating too but at least you still have your land on which you can rebuild but the very earth some of the Vermonters’ houses and barns were on is washed away as well as the paved roads that led to them are gone leaving behind nothing but gorges and trenches that need to be filled in.
Where is federal aid for these poor folks??

[Mills Morrison]

Lots of flooding down here too. Hope your camp does not get damaged

[Dean Romig]

We're on high ground and well above any brooks and streams in the valleys. Thanks Mills.

Dean, I know that the news reports of the damage in Vermont is severe, but I can not think that they over exaggerate the actual damage. I know that roads are washed out but the natural habitat is very resilient, surviving hundred's of years of rains such as these. I will bet your covers are fine. Man made "habitat" such as roads is not natural and will be destroyed before the natural habitat that has not been touched by mans hands will be fine.

[Dean Romig]

Steve - I know the natural habitat will restore itself in a matter of a few years and wildlife populations, including fish and other aquatic creatures, will come back eventually…
But peoples homes, farms, roads, businesses and their very lives may never fully recover.

Unfortunately your are right on that Dean. I wonder why Vermont has been hit so hard in the past ten years or so of heavy rains and destruction? We have had some here in NH but not nearly as bad as Vermont.

[Phil Yearout]

95 to 100+ here for the past week or so, and more of the same forecast for the next week or two, with not a drop of rain forecast. Local water supply is dwindling and they have just instituted phase two of the drought response program which limits watering lawns and flower gardens to one specific day per week, and no watering between 8AM and 10PM. Too bad some of this can't be evened out!

A picture from Dad’s place. There is a dike under all this
