It was focused mostly along lower State Street west of the Bailey Avenue Bridge. It was blamed on heavy rain and ice jamming, according to the statement. In addition, the city was asking residents and businesses with flood-prone basements to take the necessary action immediately. “Properties on State, Elm, Langdon and Main streets should check their basements, remove items from the floor of the basements, and consider potential electrical issues associated with basement flooding, according to the city,” the statement advised. High water was reported along the edge of Route 12 from Worcester to Montpelier. Also along Route 2, flooding was reported at spots from East Montpelier to Marshfield, where state crews were reportedly out chopping ice on Route 232 to alleviate some backups there. While slippery in spots, most back roads prone to flooding were being monitored, but no major incidents were reported.

20150123141220VernonVTBroad Brook01/21/20152015Freeze-up42.81880555-72.54847222--released-Jan 21: Ice jam prompts flooding, rescue in Vernon. Ice jam blamed for rising water on private road. Officials said the problem began developing Sunday, when warmer weather and heavy precipitation arrived. That caused major icing problems on area roadways, and it caused other problems on Broad Brook, which flows from Guilford into Vernon and passes by Oxcart Road on its way to the Connecticut River. Oxcart Road, which is a private lane hosting several homes, "is a low point," he added. "So what's happening is, we're getting ice chunks that come down Broad Brook. The flow is starting to back up, which causes, basically, the few houses down there to turn into an island." "The ice jam had blocked up the brook and shifted that flow into the roadway," said Drew Hazelton, Rescue Inc.'s chief of operations. "The water was deep. In the early stages, there was a fair amount of current." Six swimmers entered with a boat, Hazelton said. "We were able to wade to the house," he added. "We loaded the family into the boat in two different groups. There were four people."
