You know a storm means business when even the skiers are like, “Okay, this might be a little much.” That’s what happened on February 5, 1995, when Vermont got absolutely buried.
The next big storm system expected to move into the northern New England region this Thursday looks to impact Maine and New Hampshire residents pretty much all day.
February 8, 2013—the day that all the plows in the state began working around the clock for days here in Maine as the Blizzard of 2013, better known as Winter Storm Nemo, dumped a ridiculous amount of snow across the state, shutting down towns and burying cars.
For anyone that has been saying that Maine and New England have had a lackluster winter as far as snowfall amounts are concerned, I would tend to agree with you.
If you needed a sign that people still really appreciate acts of kindness, consider this your sign to do something nice today for somebody. As we all know, Maine got almost half a foot of snow Sunday night (well if you live near Portland that is). What came next is an act of kindness you don't see much anymore.
One way to get into the Christmas spirit is to spend time in the cozy, small towns that resemble those in Hallmark Christmas movies. Thankfully, we've got a dozen of these places right here in New England.
