Maine, USA - Volatile ice caused by unseasonably warm days followed by brutal cold caused turmoil for people throughout the state Sunday. Along Water Street in Hallowell, where the Kennebec River frequently floods each spring, the water rose within minutes early Sunday morning, leaving close to a dozen cars partly or completely submerged. A large ice jam formed just downriver in Farmingdale, and the water just backed up.

New York, USA - Early reports show flood waters entering the Stockade district in Schenectady from the Mohawk River. The warm weather of the last few days has now led to ice jams on the Mohawk River as the water has turned into frozen dams with the recent cold snap.
