The Farmers' Almanac, when reporting on their forecast for Maine for Winter 2023- 2024, used the headline: 'The Brr is Back'.

Tornadoes no doubt predate what we now refer to as Massachusetts on the North American continent, but the first "whirl-wind," as they were called back in the day, was recorded right here in Massachusetts.

The hurricane names that we will never see again because they're retired.

Like so many things, the weather is to blame,

Happy April. We all may be ready for Spring, but Old Man Winter may not be done with us quite yet. We DO get some snow in April . Sometimes a LOT of snow.

March in Maine. I love that every one this past week was acting like winter was over. The above-average temperatures certainly helped. But PEOPLE! Do you FORGET? It's not Spring until maybe late May. At the EARLIEST. I swear, the summer is so perfect here in Maine that it somehow wipes out our memory (like that cool memory stick light thing from Men in Black), and we forget how horrible the weather can be this time of year.

Excuse me, what?

I assumed if the air temp is over 32, then the roads must be good to go, right? Not so fast...

Rockland Harbor experienced winds close to 50 MPH in this Nor'Easter that slammed the eastern coast

We are at or very close to multiyear highs when it comes to energy costs for the upcoming winter

Route 2A that runs through Haynesville is one of the most haunted places in Maine

'Maine' and 'tornadoes' aren't words in the same sentence very often.

We don't even want to think about it yet, but here we are.

Summer may be hanging around for a while longer this season as well.

It appears we've survived another winter. Now it's time to endure that soft, sinking transition from cold weather to warm weather with this funny song from Lovell's Flooded Cellar band.

As much I had to admit it, the false springers are right. The mild weather we've enjoyed as we wrap up the workweek is about to blow outta here.
