    Steady snow for much of today

    Forecasters are certainly going to be earning their money this month.  Here we go again with another very complicated situation unfolding for southern Maine and the seacoast area of New Hampshire.  As you are no doubt aware there is some snow in the forecast for late tonight and Sunday.  The atmosphere is a funny thing, […]

    Light to moderate snowstorm this weekend

    We have a split weekend weather wise on the way. After a bright, sunny, and comfortable day today tomorrow will see clouds thicken, but remaining dry for the daylight hours. Both today and tomorrow will be great ski days, but tomorrow you will need a good pair of goggles as there will be lots of […]

    Still many unanswered questions on the weekend storm

    As I review latest  suite of data the trend is for a slightly colder and weaker system for Saturday night and Sunday, in other words, no massive storm.  We will certainly still have a storm to watch and there will be some wind and accumulating snow, but we are not looking at a blockbuster system. […]

    Watching another weekend storm

    Here we go again.  For the third weekend in a row another coastal storm is poised to affect the area.   There are some differences between this storm and the past two.   Prior to this storm warm air will try to flow north and will impact the position of the rain/snow line.   Here […]

    Snow moving into mountains, rain at coast

    Rain and snow is rapidly pushing through southern Maine with rain at the coast and wet snow inland. Latest radar trends show the precipitation moving north and there will be some big puddles developing as the rain has trouble finding its way to the sewer system.  It’s school vacation week and this should be music […]

    Most of the snow will fall this morning

    An intense ocean storm continues to gain strength as it moves eastward this morning. Southern Maine is on the western edge of the snow shield and there is often a sharp cut-off line between who gets snow and who doesn’t. So far, most of the heavier accumulating snow has been confined to coastal areas of […]

    Mild and springlike today

    We have a great story about the weather to tell this morning. Today is going to get spring fever going in earnest with temperatures into the 40s in many spots. Sunshine will be mixed with clouds and you can expect to see water running down the sides of the road as more melting takes place. […]

    Any snow tonight will miss Maine

    You may have heard about some potential snow tonight from another coastal storm. The good news folks — if you don’t want more snow — is that the storm isn’t going to hit us. All indications are, as the storm passes out to sea overnight and early Thursday, the snow shield will try to move […]

    Mild, wet start to your Monday

    After the record-breaking snowstorm of the past weekend, milder air will bring melting to the region today. Of course, it’s going to take more than a day of rain and temperatures in the 40s to melt this snowpack, but every little bit helps.   I’ll be updating the forecast on Twitter at @growingwisdom. Send your observations […]

    How much snow fell in the big snowstorm of 2013

    I thought it would be fun to just do a short entry of the snow totals around the state and much of New England today.  From Gorham to Boston to Hartford, CT, this was a storm that many of us will never forget.  The good news is that most of us kept our power and […]
