This weather event isn't over. Roads are flooded throughout the state and now the wind is going to be 20-30mph and gusting up to 55. Do NOT drive over a flooded road as you and your car can be washed away! #VTWX

Watch Jon Stewart's speech slamming Congress for its inaction supporting 9/11 victims and first responders.

"What an incredible metaphor this room is. ... Behind me, a filled room of 9/11 first responders, and in front of me, a nearly empty Congress." https://t.co/8exTk5sIO4
