"NH Faces Devastating Floods: Assessing the Aftermath of Monday's Storm"
New Hampshire communities are assessing flood damage after heavy rain and winds caused roads to flood and rivers to rise. Some roads remain closed, and officials are urging people to seek alternate routes. The Saco River in Conway reached near-record levels, prompting rescues by the New Hampshire National Guard and other emergency responders. The storm melted snowpack and brought an unusual amount of rainfall, contributing to extreme river rises. Cleanup efforts are underway, and state officials are assessing if federal aid is needed.
