Valley showers and mountain snow showers today. Some accumulation is likely, but impacts won’t be significant.

BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) - Additional mountain snow is likely today as a compact system moves into our region from Canada. The valleys will have mainly showers and the mountains will have snow showers. Highs will be in the upper 30s to low 40s. This activity will taper to mountain flurries overnight. For Sunday, only scattered valley sprinkles and mountain flurries are expected with minimal accumulation. Total accumulation for this event will be little to nothing in the valleys, and 1 to 3 inches in the mountains, though isolated amounts of 4 to 5 inches can’t be ruled out at the summits. Most of this will occur today. Some higher-elevation roads may become slippery, but impacts will be minor.

Colchester's late touchdown propels Lakers to second straight D-II title

In the fourth quarter, No. 1 Colchester would not be denied of its second straight Vermont high school football Division II championship . The Lakers were in the middle of a slugfest against No. 2 Fair Haven facing a tied game. Colchester stuck to its formula of running the ball and the Slaters' defense became exhausted and had no answer. The Lakers executed an 11-play, 85-yard drive that took 6:23 off the clock ending in senior Jackson O'Dell's 11-yard rushing touchdown. Quarterback Parker Walker was perfect on that drive connecting on all three of his passes. That score was the decisive one as the Lakers earned a 20-13 victory over Fair Haven in the 2026 Division II championship game at Burlington High School on Saturday, Nov. 14. Colchester becomes the first D-II team to win back-to-back titles since Rice won three in a row from 2012-2014. "Any way I can help the team out and get the job done was what I was really looking for in that situation," O'Dell said. Now Colchester has won its last three games against Fair Haven which include the last two championship games and a regular season game from earlier this season. The Lakers
