Severe storms and tornadoes threaten Vermont with more flash flooding.

Severe Thunderstorm Watches have been issued across parts of Kentucky to Vermont as powerful storms erupt in the Northeast. More than 5 million people are under watch, with areas already affected by catastrophic flooding at a higher risk of flash flooding. Up to 5 inches of rain is expected through Saturday, with the potential for damaging winds, large hail, and even tornadoes. The flash flood threat will shift eastward towards the Atlantic coast on Friday, affecting New England and parts of the mid-Atlantic. Residents are urged to take the severe weather warnings seriously and seek shelter if necessary.
