Record Rainfall for July 2021

8/9/2021 (Permalink)

Orange road closure signs on a road which has been flooded due to large amounts of rain. Record rainfall in the area led to the swelling of countless rivers, brooks and streams causing damage to local roads and property.

There's no doubt that Southern New Hampshire and Vermont have had their share of rain so far this Summer.  Downpours, thunderstorms, driving rain, drizzle, more downpours, we've had it all and then some. Remnants from Tropical Storm Elsa also contributed large periods of rainfall.

July rainfall totals in Southwestern New Hampshire surpassed previous records that were set in the mid-1800s. Jaffrey, NH measured a record 19.17 inches of rainfall while Keene, NH saw an even 18 inches of rain. Swelling rivers, brooks and streams led to localized flooding throughout Southwestern, NH and Southern Vermont. SERVPRO of Windham & Windsor Counties received hundreds of calls from property owners who experienced flooded basements, roof leaks and wind damage. Many homeowners expressed a common sentiment, "In all these years in our home, we've never had water in our basement." Very understandable as July was the rainiest for Southwestern NH in over 100 years. Areas in Southern Vermont were also affected and damaged by the high amount of rainfall.

If your home or business has experienced water damage resulting from flood water, or any water related mishap, contact SERVPRO of Windham & Windsor Counties to make water and flood damage "Like it never even happened."
