Here's How High Rivers Across New England Got After Storm

Monday’s storm quickly transitioned from primarily being a wind threat to primarily being a flood threat as rivers across New England rose after several inches of rain fell. The situation was exacerbated in parts of northern New England where a melting snowpack added to the rivers as well. Several rivers saw top five highest crests on record with a few setting new records. Here are the numbers as rivers continue to recede:
