    I plan on hiking Bald Mountain in Oquossoc ME, near Rangeley. Leave Portland around 3am and get there just after sunrise, snowshoe up with a crap ton of gear - a couple camera bodies, a 500mm lens, a 14mm lens, two tripods and assorted accessories - and enjoy a sunny warm day at the summit. I suspect I will not be alone, but it won’t be crowded. A late departure time for the return trip home will hopefully mean a lot less time in traffic .. home by 10:00? That would be ideal

    How did the NAM sleet idea work out? Some were pimping it wicked hard

    In the neighborhood of 18-19". Power out, no cell service, all sorts of trees entangled in power lines in my neighborhood, the power line to my house is laying in the road .. this will be a long-duration outage and as it's the weekend we will get a hotel room til Monday.

    Nope. Stuck at home, trees and wires down everywhere. May not be able to get to the gas station for fuel refills. Concerns

    I took a walk on the roads around my home and took a video. There’s a couple limbs falling in it, but not nearly as close as a few where i was no more than maybe 20 feet away.

    I don’t think I can make it as several roads are blocked by fallen trees

    I think we are pretty f’ed here. Just went out to fill the gas tanks and had a slow white knuckle drive with limbs and power lines across the road. Whiteout conditions when driving past the lakes. Hvy hvy droop .. gonna take a walk for pics when daylight

    I had 3" of sleet when I was expecting damaging freezing rain. That ended up closer to the coast

    I'm just bustin'. If folks want to Zapruder the 60h 18z NAM then this is the place to do it

    Getting a little granular with the NAM at like 60 hours here .. haha!

    I doubt anything that falls after sunrise Friday is snow - pretty light rates - but before that is certainly a hoot

    I think he's done it. Feverishly hitting F5 on the GFS run as we speak

    I’ll take the snow. Shortening stick season is always welcome for my pursuits

    Glad the storm trended colder - my ‘hood was forecast to get that freezing rain

    After I cleared off the 6.2” of snow yesterday the sleet came fast and furious, about 3 inches of it, but I let it go to take care of in the morning. Mistake! Apparently we had freezing rain for a spell which solidified that sleet into an impenetrable mass on everything, most importantly vehicles. I can’t make any headway on removing it, so gonna have to rely on the sun to soften it

    6.2” and have changed to sleet 20 miles west of PWM

    A nice respite from the riveting 2012 discussion
