NAM is the Christmas miracle. Weenie hopes and dreams dependent on persistence of the famous CAD. It’s breezy out there tonight and some friends who got power back yesterday just lost again. A rough 10 days in SW Maine when it’s all said and done.
Lot of folks in my area still without power, we got ours back yesterday but have family who don't expect to get it back until Wednesday. Some of those same folks might lose it again two days later. At this point CMP might as well just keep the out of state contractors on site through xmas. Those guys stand to make a ton of $$$
Pleasant mountain is closed, I just heard from a mountain ops guy it took an hour to travel last .5 mile of access road so many trees down. Neighbors house took some damage it looks like. Fingers crossed for my property. So far just a cherry tree that I didn’t like anyway
Seems like widespread power outages. CMP website is crashed. Power is out even in downtown area where we live. First time in the 4 years we’ve lived in this house. Woodstove and propane range for the w
last day for muzzle was 12/10 in this zone. Lot's of folks getting after it this year. Same with trapping and baiting, interest in hunting seems to be at an all time high from what I'm seeing, not sure the license data would corroborate
GYX seemed to acknowledge a lot of uncertainty for the CP into the foothills in this mornings AFD. Gonna be some surprises around here in either direction. Typical spots are favored of course
From this mornings GYX AFD:
With such fine margins...there is big bust potential in either
direction along that coastal frontal zone. Some Bufkit forecast
are quite robust in the PWM area for snowfall...but model snow
depth fields...which often can more accurately depict snowfall
amounts in the marginal/mixed scenarios show very little locally
including into the foothills.
we cash on these while places to our north miss out on the juice and south has ptype issues. Not spiking the football but looks to be an above average storm incoming
seems to be some good model consensus for 1.25-.5" QPF for my area enough cold in place. Even with less than 10:1 I'm thinking 8" is a lock and I like where I am. This area just at the southern end of the foothills can do really well in coastal setups.
