Flooding In Richmond Vermont
October 1, 2010
Lots of rain caused the Winooski River to spill over into the Village Green in Richmond, Vermont. The water flooded the play ground, soccer, and baseball fields. A man in a truck attempted to drive his truck through the water but did not quite make it.
Below are a few photographs from the flooding.
