Snowy Springtime in Maine


Snowbound in Maine
This link is to Jim's photo album of snowy conditions last spring in April and this spring in March. And here's some more great photos and information on the world's largest snowwoman in Maine.

Here's a recent YouTube video: Richmond Maine snowfall. 100 year old record broken

So far, Portland/Cape Elizabeth has received 90.7 inches of snow, compared to the average winter that sees 72 inches. The snowiest ever was 1970-71 when Portland received 141.5 inches. "We have a ways to go to beat that record," Schwibs said.

Just heard the weatherman say, "Often the heaviest snowfalls are in March." Yikes!
