| Episode Narrative | A strong and rapidly intensifying low pressure system moved from the Great Lakes across Ontario and western Quebec during the morning and early afternoon of January 9th.

Some of these strong winds translated down to the surface and caused scattered wind damage in the form of downed trees and scattered power outages throughout Vermont. Some observed wind gusts included; 55 mph in Waitsfield (Washington county), 53 mph at Colchester Reef (Chittenden county) with 45 mph in Rutland (Rutland county) and Westford (Chittenden county). |
