Severe Storm Watch Hits Northern Vermont | Montpelier News

Severe weather is brewing across northern and central Vermont, parts of New York, and New Hampshire with a National Weather Service Severe Thunderstorm Watch in effect until 4 AM Wednesday. Expect wind gusts up to 70 mph, two-inch hail, and frequent lightning—with a small chance of tornadoes. A cold front is triggering storms starting Tuesday night, peaking through early Wednesday. Wind damage is the biggest threat, potentially causing power outages, though flooding isn’t expected. Tornado risk is low but not zero—past tornadoes in the region occurred during similar risk levels. If you hear thunder, seek shelter immediately. When a tornado warning hits, go to your basement or lowest level, away from windows. Stay alert, keep phones charged, and turn on severe weather alerts.
