12" of Pure powder today in Central Maine.



Easy to shovel....but not fun for this young deer. Had a sibling with him/her. Gnawing on an apple tree branch. Hope they found the food I set out a couple of hours later...

If we have to have snow, this is the perfect dry snow. Easy to shovel. Not a lot of moisture content. If it's sunny and, say 40, tomorrow, we'll lose 1/2 the coverage. I hope that's the case....I need to clear my solar panels.

We only got 3 to 4 inches here. We were on the southern edge of the storm. Portland only got 6 to 7 snowflakes. Boston got nothing.

Nice photo of the little deer.

Took it inside my office. Motivated me to buy 60 lbs of corn to feed the deer and turkeys. Probably crows, blue jays, and red squirrels, too.

And it's almost +50F with some slight precip coming in. We have a slight chance of snow all week with above freezing temps.
