Rapid Weather Shift Brings Snow to Higher Elevations
November 5, 2025 β€” Northeastern Vermont and the North Country

An intensifying low-pressure system will sweep quickly across the region tonight, bringing a sharp drop in temperatures and a transition from rain to snow across the higher elevations. Forecasters expect the changeover to occur mainly above 1,500 feet, where colder air will take hold as the storm moves east.

While most valley areas will see only rain showers or brief flurries, the more significant snow accumulations are expected in far northeastern Vermont, where several inches may fall before the system exits overnight.

Travelers and late-season hikers should be prepared for rapidly changing conditions, slick roads, and limited visibility in the higher terrain as winter weather makes an early return to the North Country.

Wilderness Search: Ticonderoga Hunter Found Safe After Night in the Woods
Town of Ticonderoga, Essex County β€” November 1, 2025

A 34-year-old hunter from Ticonderoga was found safe on Saturday after spending the night lost in the woods near Canfield Road. According to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC), the man had been in contact with his hunting partner through the night but failed to make it out of the forest by morning, prompting his family to call for help around 12:30 p.m.

Forest Rangers Kabrehl and Quinn were dispatched from Ray Brook and began searching the area. During the operation, Rangers located items belonging to the missing hunter, narrowing their focus to a section of rugged terrain near Ticonderoga.

At approximately 4 p.m., the hunter emerged from the woods and arrived at a nearby residence on Canfield Road. Rangers responded to assess his condition. Though he declined formal medical treatment, the hunter agreed to be transported by a friend to a local hospital for evaluation, citing cramping and fatigue caused by dehydration and exhaustion.

The search concluded at 5 p.m. when all resources were cleared from the scene.

This incident underscores the importance of carrying navigation tools, adequate hydration, and emergency supplies during solo outings in backcountry terrain, especially as daylight hours shorten during hunting season.
