Well, this is a bit of a surprise. We have tied the record high temperature at the Burlington International Airport at 3:28 AM when our temperature warmed to 70 degrees. Will we break the record before rain arrives in 60-90 minutes? #vtwx

Vermont flood costs projected to exceed $5.2 billion, #UVMresearch finds. Homeowners and low-income households expected to be hit hardest by increased flooding from climate change. Findings made possible by new #UVM flood mapping tool: go.uvm.edu/oc50s #vt #vtpoli

Winter Weather expected today and Saturday for the North Country and neighboring areas. Expect difficult travel due to accumulating snow, slick roads, and blowing snow. #vtwx #nywx

This year, we asked elementary school students to come up with names for our state plows and they had many great ideas. All plows, from Jennifer Snow-Pez to the Snow Dragon, will unite to keep school commutes safe. Check out what they came up with at vtrans.vermont.gov/name-a-pl…

Highlighting some key findings here. Many talented researchers and partnership with @TNCvermont made this Vermont Climate Assessment possible. Grateful for leadership from @g_galford and important contributions from @VTEcostudies @VTStateParks @UVMExtension @CDAEatUVM and more.
#Vermont is known for cold winters, skiing, maple syrup & farming. But climate change is putting these hallmarks at risk, new #UVMresearch shows. The state has now warmed nearly 2°F, with a 21% jump in precipitation. Read the @VTClimate Assessment: go.uvm.edu/46hk1

Summer is not over yet, which means there is still time to visit some of our beautiful natural areas! Lucky for you we have a whopping 19 natural areas less than 5 mi. away from creemees. Make sure you plan your summer-end nature visits and get a creemee after or before.
