FIRST FLASH FLOOD INTERCEPT of 2023 - tragic flooding in New England

This video shows the first flash flood intercept of the 2023 flood season. The damage caused by this flash flood is why the life threatening tag was included in the flash flood warnings by the National Weather Service. This flash flood carved up Highway 113 near Madison and Conway, New Hampshire after 3+ inch rainfall rates. The boulders and sediment from the flash flood buried a pickup truck and forced residents to evacuate. This was a second flash flood event after the tragic flash floods in Vermont and eastern Pennsylvania and southern New York. With El Nino raging in the Pacific Ocean, we expect this late summer into fall to be very active for flash flooding. Turn around, don't drown!

He and the student he was tutoring over the summer were in a classroom and were caught in the eye, which went right over them. They had to hold on to doorknobs to keep from getting sucked down the hallway and out into the tornado. They had minor injuries but were very lucky!
