Apr 9, 2014
Rainfall on April 7 produced an inch of rain over Saint Lawrence County NY, and a quarter to half inch of rain elsewhere. Runoff from this rainfall along with temperatures in the 50s produced rises on rivers on April 8 and 9 that were sufficient to break up river ice. Ice movement was noted mainly on northern rivers. The Great Chazy at Perry Mills went above flood stage due to an ice jam and a flood warning was issued, with minor impacts to local roads and additional ice jam flooding downstream
