It is snowing hard this morning with large fluffy flakes of wet snow that fall like feathers. The good news is that it is not especially cold and with the warm weather of the last few days many spots are warm enough to melt the snow on contact. I’m sure it will cool off as the snow gets going and the forecast is for 3 or 4 inches with a return to winter temperatures once the storm goes by. We had enjoyed a few nice early spring days this week with sun and the gradual warm up we need. As always if you do not like the weather in New England just wait a minute and it will change.
It is not supposed to amount to much, only a few inches or so. I have been talking with folks that are looking or book fishing trips next month and it is hard to even think fishing with the snow falling. I spoke at the Norway Public Library as part of their Oxford Hills Reads Program on Monday evening with some general guidelines on what to do if you should find yourself lost in the woods.
After two of weeks of fairly warm weather where it looked like the snow might even disappear. Winter has returned, in fact we are in the middle of a very snowy stretch of whether. We had snow on Wednesday Thursday and Friday and it is snowing again this morning. None of these events have put down big accumulations but we seem to get five or six inches almost every time. The last couple of storms have been light and fluffy snow with little wind so everything is covered.
