Channel 9 has reported many more washouts than I thought existed. They are doing a special report tonight on it. At one point Laconia officials had told them all major roads in and out of Laconia were closed... now it is down to "most."

WMUR is also reporting that the Weirs Beach Boardwalk, adjacent road, and adjacent railroad tracks have all washed out, at the docks. The railroad tracks have also been washed out in Meredith at Winona Road (WMUR had video of the tracks suspended in mid-air with all the earth underneath them missing.)

There are many more roads on WMUR's list of closures tonight.

The storms have dried up. We'll see them again with daytime heating tomorrow.

A flash flood watch has been issued for most of the state including the lakes region for tomorrow as a result. There is nowhere for any more rain to go. A general (areal) flood watch has been issued for the seacoast.
