[OffbeatBryce]

I got hit pretty hard too. 

[SuperMariah07]

Omg, I know this is stupid but believe it. That would be a beautiful river. I study Tornadoes, but sometimes a hurricane's damage, similar to me people think it's pretty. One day it'll probably be transformed to Vermont Of The Heart River. Or if that doesn't happen it will turn into Mount. Heartland

[cornsnakedk]

Why don't you share some of that water with Arizona?

[kittySkrillex]

Wow lotsa views on this one !

[Ladybellefiske]

Things are better here (Sept 3) but Rochester still mostly cut off from outside world. I hope they will open the rds soon! (There's one way out, but roads are not easy, thru Warren).

[pashedmotatos]

I live in Lake Charles, Louisiana and we got hit by Hurricane Rita on September 23 back in 2005. It did our city quite a lot of damage. Our house and yard was totally messed up when we came back

We had a lot of large trees in our yard come down. One fell on our fence and broke. Well, pretty much all of our fences were broken because of the strong winds.

[christo930]

In the Philadelphia area, we had already had record rainfall for the month of august (we'd already broken the August record before the storm) and so the ground was saturated and many trees simply fell over because the soil lacked the integrity to hold the tree up. Then we got 6-10 inches of rain on top of it, making august 2011 the wettest month ever in Philadelphia (it was a record for an August month before the storm). Good luck from me and Philly.

an Obama Shovel ready Job vote obama

[TheSentientParadox]

To ALL of you dumbasses that keep claiming this was a "week over-hyped storm"

Shut up and learn. It's not about the storm's strength. It's about the MASSIVE amount of rain dumped in a VERY short period of time in MOUNTAINOUS areas. All of that rain gets funneled very quickly into streams and rivers that overflow so fast many people have no warning. This is NOT Florida idiots. The impact of even a low grade hurricane up here is MASSIVE. Shut your faces you ignorant fools.

[santinorocks56]

or Create a video response dang that is bad my prayers are out to yall who had their homes flooded in Hurricane Irene I know what what are yall dealing with i went through Hurricane Katrina and Gustav i dont live on New orleans but i had it pretty bad where i live which is about 30-40 miles SW of new orleans

[MeTaLMIliTIa515]

So to sum up all of this he quotes "it used to be all dry...and now it's all wet" a true hero xD

[ericbombardier]

Thanks for the video! Very good.

[TheSweden740]

rutland vt is full of gangster wanna b punks tht should b floodedout

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@TheSweden740 judging from your absolutely atrocious spelling abilities, you too are a "gangsta wannabe"

Stop trying so hard and go back to high school and this time graduate.

[LATQueens]

@Styxhexenhammer666

Are there any gangs or hoods in Vermont?

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@LATQueens There are, but not like the ones in run down urban sprawl areas like Detroit or anything hahaha

[LATQueens]

@Styxhexenhammer666

lol. Vermont must be very peaceful then. Come to New York City where I live, you will hear gunshots every week :(

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@LATQueens Just move to Vermont, as long as you aren't a religious zealot or a gangster nobody here cares hahaha

[LATQueens]

@Styxhexenhammer666

Really? I'm moving to Vermont then! haha

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@LATQueens lol! It is a very nice state, very green and healthy

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@EpicDrunkTimes I can't think of why Vermont of all places would have bad karma, considering most of the population are anti-war, anti-bigotry, anti-corporatism etc.

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@EpicDrunkTimes Vermont IS in the USA you idiot.

[triciakitty]

I live in Norfolk, Va and it sickens me that the major coastal regions got the most media. You guys got hit so much harder than we did...and we live right near the ocean! My heart goes out to all of you there!

[hemptime123]

hope the plants are ok... lots of rain

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@hemptime123 The plants luckily are well above the stream hahaha this was a good 400 yards from the house and a good 35 feet below it.

[bjforJesus]

My heart goes out to all those suffering because of this storm. We in Florida know how if feels. God Bless you. We are praying for a quick recovery

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@bjforJesus Does the bj in your name stand for what I think it stands for?

[TheProfWarner]

Thank you for sharing this. My heart goes out to you and all the residents in the lovely 'green' state. I ♥ VT.

[lefebvrer3289]

Please You didnt get hit by a hurricane. IT WAS A TROPICAL STORM!

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@lefebvrer3289 Perhaps, but Vermont suffered possibly the worst damage in the nation due to immense rainfall and the already saturated ground from year long storms. 11 towns are now completely cut off from the rest of the state.

[suwaneebarbk]

@lefebvrer3289 How rude you are!

[bjforJesus]

@lefebvrer3289 You are an idiot! It makes no difference to these people if it was a Hurricane or Tropical storm! They lost their homes. Your comment is an ignorant one! I have been hit by Hurricanes (Wilma, Andrew) and never have seen flooding like this. My heart goes out to the people of VT, CT and all of NE that suffered through this disaster.

[lefebvrer3289]

@bjforJesus Actually it makes a HUGE diffrence. You know today i put in a claim to my insurance company for my home. And its even defined in a clause in my insurance, You were hit by a tropical strom NOT SUSTAINED WINDS IN EXCESS OF 74 MPH,

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@lefebvrer3289 That's how they screw people

[lefebvrer3289]

@Styxhexenhammer666 Your telling me now i have a 4,000 dollar deductable.

[TheSentientParadox]

@lefebvrer3289 "Actually it makes a HUGE diffrence. You know today i put in a claim to my insurance company for my home."

And all that proves is that insurance companies are just as ignorant as you are. If your home is GONE, it's GONE. Tropical storm or hurricane, the result is the same. "A rose, by any other name..." But then, I wonder if you even recognize that reference as foolish as your comments have been. You obviously have no heart. Too bad people like you always seem to survive.

[darkra01]

@lefebvrer3289 I know, right? They blew this way out of proportion. They got hit by a weak Hurricane/Tropical Storm. Deal with it.

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@darkra01 Come to this state and tell people this was not a major event. Come see how a dozen of our towns are now literally completely cut off from the outside world because they were between rivers which flooded out dams, bridges, and streets.

[ericbombardier]

@lefebvrer3289 LOL!! It's exactly like saying : Please You didn't get raped by a hockey team, IT WAS A BASEBALL TEAM! Your mom was right, you ARE an idiot.

[lefebvrer3289]

@ericbombardier That was one of my fantasys lol

[moose11vt]

Had some friends that had to evacuate parts of Rutland last night. Thanks for posting.

[Hustis1]

Awesome

[NicotineAndCaffeine]

I watched the video footage of Vermont on the news and I must say... all your water looks the same.

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@NicotineAndCaffeine you're so mean to Vermont :'( lol

[opticrainbow]

brutal. 

[50BurntIncenseSticks]

Your Going to Die. :)

[treesapa]

i want to go for a swim

[Zachdudeio2]

Better coverage than CNN AND no need to play it continuously 24 hours a day

[clearpancho]

@Zachdudeio2 hahah right on

[estefaniaber]

how's everything in Rutland? I lived in that city and I hope everything's ok with the hurricane...

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@estefaniaber Downtown predictably flooded, but most of the city is fine. The flooding was about as bad as the last big storm last autumn that made them put in new curbs on some of the streets to prevent people's yards from disappearing as easily.

[andrewvanrhoberts]

you should send this video in to CNN or your local news station

[danielleN101]

where in VT is this? I love your accent, makes me miss home, you must be a native VTer...yes?

[Styxhexenhammer666]

@danielleN101 Rutland Town, up on the post road area, if you're familiar with it.

Yeah I was born at Dartmouth Hitchcock but I have lived in Vermont from birth first in Woodstock, then in Rutland. Now I attend UVM.

[whatdafuk3]

Thanks for posting, real time!
