WEATHER REPORT:

The "Weather Report" is a conversation about the weather beyond the forecast.

In the office this morning, the topic came up about how much snow is on the ground after the warm temps. 

Compared to last year, we have one foot less of snow than last winter - and two feet compared to two years ago. That’s a big difference. 

This year was much more mild than in the past - as you can see by the snowfall measurements.

Now, the topic of discussion is the time change and Spring coming fast. It’s amazing to see the nice weather coming. As more and more people get vaccinated, we can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Of course, anytime we change our clocks, there’s a massive adjustment for people - not just changing every clock and watch you have, but adjusting to the change.

The other topic on the table to start the week is how the sun is shining and the wind chill is around -20 in northern Maine. How is that possible. We know, living in Maine, anything is possible. Bundle up and get ready as the temps, snow and sun do their thing and we really get to enjoy Spring - and soon enough Summer in Maine.
