The #Winooski River is expected to peak later tonight just shy of 20' in Montpelier, VT. If you live in a flood zone, please be aware and evacuate if necessary! #VTwx

The #Tenderbellies tonight at #FourQuarters Brewery in #Winooski #Vermont. #Music #Bluegrass

A little bit of hydrology action to welcome me to #Vermont. The #Winooski River is at the action level at Waterbury and expected to rise to minor #flooding there & in Essex Junction (#BurlingtonVT). Hearing reports of road flooding in that area already.

It looks bad out there and flooding is just another reason to stay home tonight.

@silviaelenaff Welcome! May I recommend a community as a model for multi-culturalism? The city of #Winooski, adjacent to #Burlington, #Vermont, is a good example of #diversity in a place we think of as a monocultural.

It's a former mill town that has opened itself to several different immigrant groups, as needed. There are vibrant #Somali and #Afghan communities. And they are part of, and included in, the larger community.

I've heard it called the most diverse city in #NewEngland.
