Vermont を締めるs for more rain in wake of historic flooding
Vermont 用意が出来ている for the next 一連の会議、交渉／完成する of 嵐／襲撃するs - and かもしれない a トルネード，竜巻 - as people took advantage of 静める 天候 Thursday to clean up from historic flooding that 損失d thousands of homes, 商売／仕事s and roads, and left some 居住（者）s 立ち往生させるd.
As 洪水s receded, the good news was that there were no new 救助（する） 使節団s, dams were 持つ／拘留するing up and more roads 再開するd. The bad news was that strong 雷雨s were 推定する／予想するd to move into parts of the 明言する／公表する by Thursday night, which could 原因（となる） more flash flooding, Gov. Phil Scott said at a news 会議／協議会. 条件s could spawn a トルネード，竜巻, he said. And the 明言する／公表する could get more 強い雨 over the 週末.
"The period we are more 関心d about is Sunday because that could be more 普及した and heavier, but not nearly on the 規模 of what we saw earlier in the week," 国家の 天候 Service 気象学者 Seth Kutikoff said.
Scott said it's important for Vermonters to be vigilant, and that 含むs not going into the water.
"We've seen many pictures on social マスコミ of kids swimming in 洪水s. This is not typical rainwater - it's filled with 化学製品s, oil, waste, and more. It's 簡単に not 安全な," he said.
New Hampshire, where some roads, towns and campgrounds were flooded in several western 郡s, was also in the 最新の 嵐／襲撃する's path.

In Vermont, communities were きれいにする up from the floods that were more destructive in some places than 2011's 熱帯の 嵐／襲撃する Irene and regarded as the worst natural 災害 since the 1927 floods, which killed dozens of people and 原因（となる）d 普及した 破壊.

Scott said he has submitted a request for a major 災害 宣言 to 大統領 Joe Biden. "It's separate from, and in 新規加入 to, the 連邦の 緊急 宣言 the 大統領，／社長 already 調印するd" on Tuesday, he said. If 認可するd, the 宣言 would 供給する 連邦の support for 回復するing communities.

"Cleanup from the 危険な 洪水 損失 in City Hall is 推定する／予想するd to take several months. Because of this, City Hall will be の近くにing until その上の notice," she said.
