Some snow before it turns milder next week
If you remember last weekend it was quite mild. During Sunday several places reached 50F. Later that evening, the temperature fell below 32F. Since then we have been in the deep freeze. A week of temperatures at or below zero at night while certainly not unprecedented hasn’t happened in several years. The cold weather has […]

Cold hangs tough, but worst is almost over
The core of the cold snap is now cresting over southern Maine and temperatures this afternoon rose to the middle and upper teens over southern areas and approached 10F to the north. As night falls clouds will melt away and this will allow temperatures to fall once again to sub-zero readings. Temperatures last night fell […]

Coldest of the cold for the next twenty-four hours
January is typically the coldest month across the area and today may very well end up as the coldest day of the winter. Arctic air is now firmly entrenched. Wind chill warnings and advisories are posted for areas away from the coast. Warnings are posted when wind chills can be as cold at 48 below […]

Most of snow to stay over ocean and not impact coast
We knew this would be a tough forecast and it is proving to be true. The latest computer models I use are keeping the heaviest bands of snow east of the region and therefore I have lowered the expected snow amounts. I’ll be updating the situation on Twitter at @growingwisdom. This doesn’t mean there […]

Mild and windy, then temperatures plummet 40 degrees by Monday
Today we are watching a very strong cold front to our west. The air on the back side of this front is basically from the north pole. For some areas in the Midwest, this is the coldest air in nearly 4 years. Here in Maine, we will experience three days of what I will call […]

Brief cold today, extended cold next week
After our small snow event earlier this week a blast of typical January cold is greeting Mainers today. Temperatures are running close to 20 below zero in the far north to near 10 along coastal areas around Portland and points south. These temperatures are not unusual and not even close to record cold. In Portland, […]

Snow through the afternoon with several inches
Another small snowstorm for Maine today with several inches of snow that will be plowable for some places and give southern Maine back its snow cover. This is great news, as we have a blast of very cold air for next week and bare ground with sub-zero temperatures can cause damage to pipes and plants. […]

A bit of snow for Wednesday
A small snowstorm is headed for Maine and will begin by sunrise Wednesday. This storm will ride along a very tight temperature contrast that is just to our south. On Monday, Portland nearly hit 60F and shattered the former high temperature for the day. As a cold front moved through yesterday temperatures were brought back to […]

Still no major cold or snow in sight
This morning we find fog advisories from Maine to the Carolinas. This is quite unusual to see nearly the entire east coast covered in fog. The reason for this is that warm air is riding up the coast and moving over the cold air and in some cases, snow at the surface. Additionally, there is […]

A bit of ice then a mild weekend followed by sinking temperatures
There is good news and bad news this weekend for winter sports enthusiasts. We will have very mild air over the region both Saturday and Sunday. I expect many towns in southern Maine to exceed 50F for a real January treat. Even in ski country the snow will soften in the afternoon for some marginally […]
