6” here. radar looks good for another inch before it’s done? Nice storm, snow banks are real, looking like winter in Maine.
-
Snow started at 9:30 in Bridgton but still only about a 1/2” since then
-
Skiied SR this past Sunday. Nothing but boilerplate and ice. Snow will be welcome Skiing at Shawnee has been surprisingly good since mlk snows. Today was especially good. During stretches like these it’s easier for mountain ops to keep a small hill in good shape.
-
Bridgton has changed so much since then. Many new restaurants bars cafes small businesses. My gf and I love the access to NoCo and Portland, fairly reliable snow, and lakes in the summer. Plus my mortgage is cheaper than renting a room in Portland no exaggeration. I’m hoping for 6-10 out of this next event. Just enough for some good powder skiing but not a pain in the azz to deal with at home. Seems to be the tenor of this month so far.

A coating here and still falling although looks to end soon, back to Winter for now. -
18z gfs gone wild with zr in my hood.

Trails are pretty typical for southern Maine and the clubs are strong. You can link up a ride that takes you up Hurricane Mountain Road and Evans Notch in NH and wraps back into Maine via Stow and Kezar Lake -- one of the classics out this way. Not sure what reciprocity is for Vermont sleds in NH and Maine these days tho.

Trails in west Bridgton/ Fryburg were seeing riders this am for better or worse
-
I think we’re done here in Bridgton at 11”. Nice storm here, skiing was fantastic at Shawnee this morning. This will set up for a nice base hopefully, probably need another one for the sleds tho

Just got back from a slushy 3” mess and pingers in Conway New Hampshire and Fryburg maine. Now back in Bridgton it’s a winter wonderland 6” OTG and lite flakes. Changeover was Shawnee peak. big change in less then 10 miles to southeast.
-
Can confirm, real place. Although mostly populated by Revere, Mass finest from June-August.
-
right now heaviest rates this morning in Bridgton. 4" OTG.
-
3” in Bridgton too.
-
Be nice to get snowmobiling up there. You guys have great trails I don’t much ride locally but I know the club and there’s lots of good folks involved. Anyways, on to the next one here.
-
Nice to have a wx observer from bridgton. Where abouts? Right in town. We were right on the edge of that gradient and got all the goods last winter while everyone south suffered. You guys earned this one!
-
I haven’t measured but eyeballing maybe 3” here in Bridgton. We missed out on snow that fell last week 5 miles north and now this! Ultimate screw zone!
-
Snow on off all afternoon in Bridgton with light accum. Nice wintry appeal with a few inches on the ground and roofs. Shawnee peak started blowing snow yesterday, earliest start for them ever.
-
Just flipped back to snow in Bridgton
-
Not New England but close anyways. Just saw a IG post from a skier guy I follow with significant snow accumulation in the Chic Chocs from Dorian. Same guy had even been making turns up there this month prior to that event. Pretty incredible the weather those mountains get only a hop skip and jump to our north.

I was working for TNC on some of their St. John lands. Im in Bangor right now for phish. Left Bridgton at 2 it was 79 and sunny. Couldn’t believe when I stepped out of car here and it’s 60 degrees cloudy and light drizzle. Almost 20 degree temp change!
-
Been through that crossing several times on my way to nine mile bridge area on the St. John. Might as well still be Quebec. Ended up being a beautiful evening in the hood out this way.
-
SR still loaded with snow. Basically 100% open this weekend except areas they temporarily closed for mama bear and cubs who woke up last week! .
-
Pic from a friends this evening up in the hills near South Bridgton Sebago line. Snowing at home and getting near to 6” in Harrison. What a winter here .
-
Same in Harrison.
-
31 and moderate snow in Bridgton. Eyeballing 4” so far. Let’s see if/when we flip.
