Monday’s cold and snow reminds us April often brings several setbacks to spring
All of Maine will be in the cold today and snow flurries add to the fact that winter isn’t ready to let go just yet. Most of the snow today will be confined to the southern most counties. We could see anywhere from a coating to 2 inches of snow, with the higher amounts south of […]

Welcome spring, and the return of winter’s snow
The snow arrived on schedule this morning, with the bulk of the accumulation is over by noon in Portland and mid-afternoon east of Rockland. The snow has fallen at rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour in several places after 5 a.m and allowed it to accumulate quite quickly. Already dry air is rapidly […]

Although we call this new time daylight saving time, we haven’t added anymore daylight to our lives; we’ve only shifted when it occurs. A […]

Our June-like temperatures mean winter’s over
Winter is over. I am declaring a lack of a credible threat of snow and cold the rest of this month and into April. Yes I know there was a big snowstorm April Fool’s Day 1997 and it snowed the second week of May in 1963. If you want to hold out for the slim […]
