Work begins to rebuild from massive flood damage
A heavy storm system on July 29 caused an estimated $3 million in damage in county; state will apply for federal disaster assistance
One of the rainiest Julys on record in Windham County ended with a wave of heavy showers and thunderstorms on July 29 that dumped as much as 5 inches of rain in a matter of few hours and caused flash flooding that damaged miles of roads and multiple homes.
No injuries were reported, but emergency crews were kept busy with evacuations from places where flash flooding occurred.
