Heavy Rains Touch Off N.H. Floods
Widespread flooding along rain swollen northern New England rivers disrupted transport and damaged property. Army engineers reported the situation under control after a weekend storm that caused over one million dollars in damage and left up to 84 inches of rain in parts of New Hampshire and Maine. Authorities logged at least eight deaths and evacuated hundreds as rivers rose to 21 year highs. Route 3 was blocked by a rock and earth slide in Franconia Notch. Bridges washed out, several towns isolated, and power and phone lines disrupted. No drownings were reported.
