WEATHER REPORT:
The ‘Weather Report’ is a discussion of the weather like we talk about it at the office and home. It’s about how we get through the winter in Aroostook County.
It’s almost mid-February and the temps are dropping to seasonal lows as we get ready for the turn around longer days.
This is the time of year skunks come out and look for a warm place to hunker down - like under your house, porch or shed. Make sure you buckle down tight any areas the skunks can call home.
If you’ve ever been up close to a place where skunks have sprayed, you know how powerful it is and how long it can last.
Keep in mind the deliveries coming to your front door. Clear the snow and ice away for UPS and postal workers to give them a clear path.
Check your cold weather gear to see if you have long johns and thermal socks. If you find a pair still in the wrapper, you probably have what you need.
Also, at night when our inside windshields are completely frosted over, try RainX to see if it works for you. It does the job and makes your commutes much easier.
Stay warm and stay ahead of the conditions.
