The Assabet River is 2 feet above flood stage, the highest level in 20 years. A few scenes from Maynard, MA of the river as it approaches its historical crest. Flood stage is 5 feet and the river had just reached 7 feet when this was filmed. It is forecast to rise another 6-8 inches in the coming days.

  • Thanks for the kind words. I was surprised there weren't more whitewater paddlers taking advantage of the strong flows as the waters retreated.

  • I plan on filming and posting videos of this next storm's effects. Look for updates tomorrow afternoon and Wednesday.
