What happened
The episode as NWS BTV wrote it up.
A powerful storm tracked northeast across Ontario and Quebec provinces on the 18th. Ahead of this storm, brisk south winds caused temperatures to rise into the 40s creating snow melt. Widespread rainfall of 1 to 2 inches on the 18th accounted for additional run-off into area watersheds. Increased high water flows within the Great Chazy River caused ice jams and flooding between Perry Mills and Champlain.
