national weather service

Your occasional campfire and/or bonfire that you have typically built and burned over the years may now require a permit. According to News Center Maine, a new law goes into effect today (10/25/23) called LD 24.

Following a topsy-turvy summer, the National Weather Service is calling for a wet and warm winter in Maine, thanks to El Niño.

Gotta love that the enthusiasm for winter storms goes beyond predicting snowfall and brings out the kid in this weather pro. Nice job, bub!

On every rainy day, the WBLM Morning Show has faithfully played that wacky song loaded with clever puns by Kip Addotta called Wet Dream.

This song brilliantly and hilariously observes and expresses the suffering we all endure living in the Pine Tree State year after year. But remember what my Nana always said. If you can't suffah the wintah, you don't deserve the summah.

This will be our first Nor'easter, with no white but plenty of wet blowing hard out there. Expect the possibility of battering wind gusts up to 55 MPH with heavy rain especially along the coast.

Looks like most areas in Blimpville will get around an inch or more with a storm headed our way Wednesday night into Thursday. Thankfully, that inch or more won't be snow.

According to the National Weather Service in Caribou, confirmation of a tornado touching down in Washington County on Monday happened when we were experiencing thunderstorms in the Southern part of the state.

A confirmed tornado touched down on Cape Cod Tuesday, and tore the roof off one West Yarmouth vacation destination.

Here's a the perfect song to help get us through the deluge. Seems like it'll be "April the 41st" for awhile.

Hopefully we'll turn the corner down the road to spring next week as temps get closer to 40. In the meantime, we might as well have a laugh with our old pal Eben and the WBLM Morning Show cold weather classic, Tis the Season For Frickin' Freezin'.

In case there was any doubt, you know there's definitely a big storm headed our when our favorite Canadian weather forecaster includes Maine in his weekly reports. "Do your grocery shopping! Don't wait until the last minute! Do it right now!!"

And like it or not, here it comes..."Snow Sleet Rain...Whatevah!" Time to cue the Stahm Centah theme song and get the snowblower wahmed up

A stormy Tuesday brought rain to some parts of Maine and snow to others. As we wrap up the workweek, there's a very good chance ALL of us will get SNOW.

So as we keep adding the extra layers this week, let's crank up the most requested winter weather song from the WBLM Morning Show!

Because snow might happen again this week... here are some of Maine's earliest-storm and most-snow records from the National Weather Service in Caribou.
