At lower elevations, mostly rain is expected.Gates on either side of the road through Smuggler's Notch will close, and at this time officials do not know if the road will be able to reopen.Vermont lawmakers also multiplied the fine for drivers getting stuck on VT-108 by 10 this year. It will now cost you at least $20,000 if your truck blocks traffic and needs to be extricated. Governor Phil Scott signed that bill, S. 326, in June.If this is the end of the 2026 season, it will be a rare year in which no trucks got stuck attempting to drive through the narrow, winding pass.
