Vermont slowly turns to recovery after being hit by flood from slow-moving storm

Floodwaters are receding in Vermont cities and towns pummeled by a storm that delivered two months of rain in two days this week. That's allowing officials to focus on recovering from a disaster that trapped residents in homes, closed roadways and choked streets and businesses with mud and debris. In the capital city of Montpelier, where streets were flooded Tuesday by the swollen Winooski River, officials said that water levels at a dam just upstream appeared to be stable. The slow-moving storm unleashed rivers from their banks and caused flash flooding in Vermont and New York, and rivers are threatening to overflow in Connecticut.
