Last update for the night

As of 8 we still have snow falling and it does appear that it will stay that way. Getting some good banding and convection. I expect that I will wake up to a MONSTER storm raging outside.

As of 8 almost 2,500,000 homes and businesses were without power and it has JUST begun. The worst snow and wind are yet to come.

Snow prediction amounts are rising with a grand total of a foot or more.

Below are some snow amounts and forecasts.

Storm update as of 6:15

As of 6:15 the snow was starting to get into Freeport ME and is picking up in intensity.

I am sort of suspicious that it MIGHT not turn to rain and stay snow… but that is only a possibility and we will have to see.

As far as snow amounts I am raising my forecast to 7-11″ to include the no-rain changeover possobility.

Wind forecasts have stayed the same.

Stay tuned
