tamarack Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Berwick, in southernmost Maine, reported a 0.1" dusting from last evening's flurries. That's the first measurable snowfall reported to cocorahs by Maine observers since 12/19, when 3 stations in eastern/northern Maine showed small amounts which actually fell during calendar 12/18. It can't be too often when the whole of Maine goes entirely snow-free for a week in late December. (Disclosure: I don't think cocorahs has any regular observers in the Rangeley to Jackman region, or far northwestern areas.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That has all sorts of goodies I can't get in AWIPS (like VIS and CIG). I can deal with the janitorial service not showing up for a week or the 1 ply toilet paper, but stop stealing my model data!

Still pretty icy out there. 32.9 with temperatures near 50 in West Boylston/Holden just a few miles away. This has occurred consistently in this type of set up over the years here as the cold air gets trapped on the east of the hills. Yeah. I was running errands between my home and Gardner MA. Temps were as much as 12F different in just a couple of miles. Evening out now 40 car crashes in Fitchburg this morning due to ice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkO Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 roads are a mess up here. Seems like they're planning on the melt because the roads haven't been touched. 31.7/31 which is my high of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only got up to 35F here today, been rotting at 34F at the ASOS and my car has said the same 34F throughout town. The inch of snow/sleet hasn't even melted off, so far this is actually a very minor net gain lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably average about 90-100". That's not a lot for the southern Whites. This year it seems Maine has been doing pretty well. Actually, Wildcat is probably most over average. You guys have had a better than average season (even record territory for a bit). Hopefully NY storm is more wet than white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneypitmike Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 FWIW, the CAA comes in like a lion. Wind's a ripping......I've never seen things trigger the motion-sensing light. Doing our first ORH house showing today. Love the look of it on-line and from the drive-by we did. Not thrilled by only 630' elevation. Now that we've accepted an offer on Pit1, we can legitimately consider making offers now. 43*--down 2* in 10 minutes. Didn't we just watch this movie a week ago??

With my wife working at Clark we certainly have a wide-range of towns we can consider. She's a bit 'done' with country living at this point. And, the houses on the west side are just fantastic homes architecturally. There are so many 1890-1930 Victorians and Arts/Crafts home there. I've always thought the houses in Worcester are as awesome as you can find anywhere. Plus, ORH is finally achieving it's long-sought and long-promised renaissance: https://www.npr.org/2018/10/23/658263218/forget-oakland-or-hoboken-worcester-mass-is-the-new-it-town so despite the price of the west-side homes, I think it would be a positive investment. That said, I'm not sure what we'll do with 4000 sf (other than need to buy an awful lot of furniture). 39* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’ll snow a fair bit, but it may just be normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
