The emergency in Vermont came as heavy rainfall drenched the Northeast from upstate New York to western Maine.

The extreme weather began on Sunday, affecting much of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions, prompting flash flood alerts in parts of New York.

One person was killed in the floodwaters in upstate New York. In hard-hit Orange County, New York, officials said more than 500 homeowners have reported damage so far.

The system pushed north on Monday, with the heaviest rainfall hitting Vermont.

The Northeast is expected to get a break from the downpours on Tuesday and Wednesday, but more heavy rain and thunderstorms are in the forecast for the region Thursday, including in New York and Vermont. Another 2 to 4 inches of rainfall is possible.
