WEATHER REPORT:

The 'Weather Report' is a conversational piece on winter in the Aroostook County, Maine.

If you’re sore from cleaning your car off after the storm, you’re not alone.

It’s important to pace yourself and still get the job done in a timely manner - you got to get to work on time.

People who don’t ordinarily remove snow were moving snow this week. We saw neighbors were helping each other snowblow and shovel.

The snow came down looking light and fluffy, but it was some heavy, snowball-like snow on the ground.

The warmth from the pact made for scraping the ice off windows less arduous.

If you own snow pants, you’re ahead of the game. Fingerless gloves that turn into mittens are a big bonus when cleaning up after a storm.

If you have to travel - especially on the interstate - make note of how narrow the roadway is from the snow and ice creeping in from the edges.

Remember to stock up on some basic things like water, food and a charged cell phone when you travel.
