National Life is open for people who are evacuating. Route 2 west is flooded from Bailey Avenue; do not drive there. Main Street between the roundabout and School Street is also closed.
Floodwaters are expected to crest at 3 am. Over the next two hours, 1 - 2 more inches of rain is expected.

Do not come downtown. Floodwaters are dangerous - they can be filled with sewage, petroleum products, hazardous chemicals, and disease causing pathogens. Roads are also washing out in higher areas, so driving can be very hazardous.
