The episode as NWS BTV wrote it up.

AS IT DOES...AXIS OF PRECIP WILL SHIFT FROM THE NORTH TO THE SOUTH THRU THE SATURDAY PERIOD.

The Burlington radar (KCXX), 6 km away, was scanning. The volume nearest the first event began at 19:14 UTC.
6 flash flood, 1 lightning, 1 flood. Local standard time, as filed.
Heavy rainfall caused flash flooding in Burlington, inundating Pine Street and Shelburne Road.
Thunderstorms with very heavy rainfall moved into the higher terrain of Chittenden County in the afternoon. The combination heavy rain, steep terrain, and high stream levels and soil moisture from previous rainfall caused flash flooding. Jericho, Richmond, and Huntington were hard hit, with many washed out roads. Damaged roads include Plains Road, Schilhammer Road, and Skunk Hollow Road in Jericho, and Huntington Road and Jericho Road in Richmond. Other roads were inundated and made impassable until flood waters receded, including Vt Route 2 in Richmond and 117 in Jericho.
Heavy rainfall over the rugged terrain of central Lamoille County produced flash flooding in Stowe. Route 108 was inundated by flood waters and blocked by a debris flow between Stowe Village and Smugglers Notch.
Flash flooding from heavy rainfall caused water to cover a portion of Route 100 in Eden VT.
A report of a 62 year old woman struck by lightning and taken to the hospital for treatment.
Heavy rainfall over rugged terrain of central Vermont caused flash flooding in Barre. Summer Road, River Street, and Blackwell Road was partially washed out by flood waters.
Flash flooding from heavy rainfall over rugged terrain closed several roads in Waterbury, including Blush Hill Road, Stowe Road, and Hubbard Farm Road.
Excessive runoff that caused earlier flash flooding in the Huntington and Richmond Vermont areas moved downstream on the Winooski River. The Winooski River at Essex Junction river gage exceeded its flood stage of 12.0 feet and crested at 12.6 feet. Water approached North Williston Road in Essex, and crops were flooded and ruined in the Intervale Center in Burlington.
