Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

Flood of 2005

On October 9th, 2005 12” of rain overwhelmed the drainage capacity of the Cold. The result was the worst flooding in this region in over 50 years. The town of Alstead was devastated with several bridges and roads being washed out. Also nearly a dozen homes were destroyed and carried downstream. As of this writing (October 13th) there were still three people unaccounted for and presumed dead. For the time being boaters should stay away and allow rescue and recovery crews to continue their work. Even when this work is done boaters should realize the river bed may have had some drastic changes. Strainers will probably be a major problem for some time.
