Snowy day at Bowdoin https://www.bowdoin.edu/webcams/coles.html

we hope

that area over to pen bay has had some great mesoscale events this winter

Nearly stationary funnel of moisture off the gulf, great to look at on radar. Is it amounting to anything on the ground?

I’m about 22” from my average at this spot since 2013. Certainly feasible but not guaranteed. If it happens, long duration cold plus best lake ice season since 2019 this winter could salvage a B-, otherwise it’s solidly in C category for this part of NNE

I’ve been tuned out for a while, spent last half of Feb in Hokkaido, Japan. That’s for another post. Looking ahead def some chances later in the month 19-26th? for the climo favored spots especially. We’re basically fully melted out here. Has been a cold but low snow year for the interior foothills into the mountains. Spots like Greenville are looking at less than 40” in January/Feb. that’s bad

That’s a high impact event for a decent portion of the upper Midwest

I’m at 62.5”. Difference is the December norlun and a couple other events where you outperformed. Wonder when the last time klew was ahead of the southern foothills/interior Cumberland county.

Overperformed here 2.25”. With Wednesday that’s 5.75” on the week, not a bad way to run a torch

It makes lots of noise too. Definitely a little spooky. Nice to be on skates so you can move quickly. But there’s at least 6” of ice on the whole bay so it’s very safe.

Stunning out there this morning .

Long fetch on that lake, need sustained night time lows well below zero, but even more importantly low wind. Big bay froze last year but was short lived and got smashed by wind

Count me in for the euro op look. This stretch has been great for lake ice but not snow. The big bay on Sebago is making legit ice for the first time in over a decade. Now lets relax the temps and get some snow where it wants to snow in peak climo, NNE

Cold morning, -13f

3” new since about 1 pm. 16” storm total.
