Passumpsic River    Saint Johnsbury               44.42N -72.01W
                    Caledonia County   VT         NWS surveys

          Jam is located at the confluence of the Passumpsic and
          Moose Rivers in St. Johnsbury, and likely formed during
          the ice breakup event of Dec 18-20, 2025. This is a
          common location for jams to form as there are
          significant shoals at this location. Water is finding a
          way around the jam, but the quantity of jumbled and/or
          rafted ice will need to be monitored during ice breakup
          later this winter/spring.
          None observed

Passumpsic River    Lyndonville                   44.55N -71.99W
                    Caledonia          VT         NWS surveys

          This is a small jam centered around the Lily Pond Road
          crossing of the E. Branch of the Passumpsic River in
          Lyndon, VT. This is a common location for ice to jam up
          due to the shallow nature of the channel at this
          location, and in the past has served as source ice for
          additional jamming downstream during breakup. Water is
          finding a way around the jam currently, but conditions
          will need to be monitored during breakup later this
          winter/early spring.
          None noted

Lamoille River      East Georgia                  44.68N -73.08W
                    Franklin County    VT            NWS surveys

          This is a small ice jam on the Lamoille R. at the
          entrance to Arrowhead Mountain Lake. Water is finding a
          way around the jam at this point. This is a common
          place for jams to form as the river current slows upon
          entry into the upper lake waters. In general, the jams
          at this location pose little threat to property, with
          the only real issue here is possible minor flooding
          along Arrowhead Lake Rd.


Salmon              Whippleville                  44.79N -74.25W
                    Franklin County    NY         NYS Watch Ctr.

          Large ice jam on the Salmon River south of Malone, NY
          near the hamlet of Whippleville. Specifically, this
          along a bend in the river just north of the Kimpton
          Bridge and is approximately 1/4 mile long. No flooding
          is occurring, but county EM has brought in excavators
          to help alleviate/clear ice and is concerned as this is
          a large jam. Drones were also flown over the jam, but
          not sure if imagery is available.
          None at this time.
