Episode Narrative The interaction between a cold frontal boundary and the remnants of Tropical Storm Tammy resulted in tremendous amount of rainfall throughout most of central and southern New Hampshire. Rainfall ranged from just under 2 inches in far northern New Hampshire to 9 inches at Gilford in Belknap County. An unofficial report was received of 12.75 inches near Gunstock Ski area. There was a tremendous amount of damage to roads and bridges, and to the infrastructure in general due to flooding of small rivers and streams. Homes and businesses were damaged. Tragically, two young people lost their lives in the town of Unity in Sullivan County when they attempted to drive over a bridge that had already been washed away.
