My guess is the analog you're seeing referenced is not Limestone, rather Newport, VT. The issue was that the destination (festival) closed due to heavy rain-induced mud leaving nowhere to put any cars. With no destination for cars, they were left on the side of 91 (and adjacent roads), and tens of thousands walked 20+ miles to get in. I went to Limestone, too, and found that while there was traffic, nothing was overwhelmed like it was in Newport. Hopefully general populace travelers are wise enough to bring paper maps, food, water and blankets in case the bottlenecks after get real bad.

September

30.0" on the season for PWM, which puts us at 3rd least snowy winter on record.

Damage plus a distant MWN.

Pretty significant tree damage here. Tons of roads closed. Green and blue flashes all night.

PWM 05z obs: 0.2" new - 0.09" SWE ---- 5.3" Total SN/IP - 0.90" SWE 1.46" RN Enough ice accretion to make the sky green and blue. 2.36" Total liquid Great event for C/NNE.

Just did the math. Still need 05z obs which will add to the SN and QPF. 5.1" SN/IP - 0.81" SWE. 1.38" RN Chris mentioned 0.33" radial - I would imagine I have at least that as I'm a few miles south. Dark house creaking with the wind. Zero complaints. 26°F SHSN

Yes! you're definitely undercounting without the board. Forget the clearing, even just a dark surface under Morch sun will help melt/compact

Yeah I thought the same at first. Honestly think it's transformers blowing and trees cracking. Powers been out since 830, right after a big flash. 5.1" snow as of 00z, at least an inch of rain (all under 32°F - haven't measured ice accretion but sounds like @OceanStWx did.) Back to SN after an(other) hour of IP. Should wind down soon. Genny time.

I think the same is happening here in PWM

Had 2.2" with 12z obs, eyeballing 4.5-5" now. 32.0F with the sleep line pushing the Cumberland County line.

Set the o/u at 16z. I'll take the over (but not by much).

Mid-levels cooling at all?

Warnings now extended to the coast up here. ...WINTER STORM WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 3 AM SATURDAY TO 6 AM EDTSUNDAY...* WHAT...Heavy mixed precipitation expected. Total snowaccumulations between 4 and 9 inches, sleet accumulations around 1inch, and ice accumulations around two tenths of an inch. Thegreatest snow accumulations will be away from the immediatecoast. Winds gusting as high as 35 mph Saturday night.* WHERE...Coastal Waldo, Knox, Lincoln, Sagadahoc, and CoastalCumberland Counties.

As a resident of a dead end, I appreciate the reminder.

Christ. I guess I'll test the genny. WTF.

haha Millinocket is 10 miles and one road from 95. Nearly impossible to mess that up regardless of conditions. 33/0

Perfect. Keeps me at futility and most importantly keeps the lifts spinning into April.

Yeah I would have expected to get bumped up some down here but they held steady with their forecast overnight.

Massive bowl-wide avalanche in Tuckerman Ravine on March 19Estimated as a 1:20 year event.https://www.mountwashingtonavalanchecenter.org/observations/

Corrected that from earlier. Yes, my total for PWM this year is #1 currently. Now that I see where we're at for futility, let's keep it north and under 2.8" here.

Nice. Never been but the kids cub scout pack is hiking it in June.
