Ya' great summer night after a few cool ones. Looking forward to an AN Sept. Going to head up to Lake Wyola tomorrow after I pick the boy up from school. Next week looks great!
Stowe area or Crawford Notch are your best snow bets. NEK is great but isolated. Carrabasset Valley has the longest winters but is only a jackpot every 4 or 5 years. Not sure how much you ski but Stowe and Sugraloaf are hands down the best mountains on the East Coast.
Also, New England Hurricane, A Factual Pictorial Record By the Federal Writers Project is pretty good. It was published in 1939 but you can find acceptable copies for short money.
US news outlets have no interest in Atlantic Canada. it's boring. It will be a slow process getting everybody online as it will be a street by street effort. At one point 80% of Nova Scotia was without power. I can't imagine there are much more than 50k people on PEI. New Brunswick has a lot of customers out as well.
1) Blizzard of 78 (I was 10 and school was cancelled for a week!)
2) April Fool s 97 (Awesomeness!)
3) January 2005 Blizzard (30"+ in Cambridge)
4) October 2011 Snow Storm (Freak storm)
5) Hurricane Irene (Western New England flooding was surreal)

I've had several personal severe weather episodes that have been personally mind blowing but were isolated so I went with the historic stuff.
