SNOw

I probably had 3 inches this morning when I left the house....it was a messy ride to Disgusta

 
some on the ground last night, gone when i woke up, other than the slush clumps the plow left on the side of the road.

 
'Bout an inch in Yarmouth...enough to freak out the dog, but not enough to make for spirited driving.

I just got this in an email from Joint Operations Command:

This message is to serve as a Warning only and is not a call to action:
Bottom line, we have a mess from now until Friday.

We may see some significant ice accumulation.

Up north, they have received about 4-5" of snow and are now getting freezing rain. Expect as much as .2 -.4 inches accumulation today. Some changes to the pattern and temperatures tonight, before phase three begins Thurs night.

Worst would be in parts of the north central region Thurs night and Friday. Worst case total ice accumulation in that region could exceed 3/4", which is not good.

In the south along the coast, we are looking at something more along the lines of 1/4 - 1/2 inch of ice Thursday night into Friday.

Storm track and temperatures uncertain at this time.

The Maine JOC will participate in Maine Emergency Management Agency Teleconferences when scheduled.

Again, this is message is not a call to action.
I did have a lot of freezing rain when I left for work this morning. There was a coat on the car and the roads were glare ice, but that was at 4:45am. The g/f said its just raining now...

 
Camden STM outpost reports no sno no mo.

blowing 55 mph offshore, with 20-foot seas out in the gulf...whoa!

 
UPDATE NUMBER 3

my g/f says that it's freezing rain/sleet/hail right now in Phillips...sounds like a fun drive home

 
~ 1/2" ice accum overnite in midcoast, more inland

my folks lost power, so did the g/f's place. appleton power back on now, lincolnville still kaput.

roads are stupid icy, guess the road crews are on vacation :icon_scratch: :whip2:

guess it's finally time to get the snows on eh?

 
we have about an inch of ice. our road is blocked and the office is closed today.. sweet.

 
It was raining pretty hard when I left the house. Seemed to be a mix of rain and freezing rain. Power went out at 4a and lots of exploding tree noises. Plus the spectacular super bright blue electrical arc from some power lines lighting up the neighborhood. EEch!

 
Hate the rain.... Lost power Early Friday, still no power, but the streets next to mine have it. F'ers
run an extention cord out your window through the back yard into their outdoor outlet! then you too will have the power!
