December 11, 200817 yr Author wow=snow there. go celebrate and get a hurricane on Bourbon Street. Might have to partake in both a hurricane AND a hand-grenade (frozen of course!)
December 11, 200817 yr This time last year, we almost had 2 feet of snow. As of today we have a total of none, but supposed to get over a foot by Monday. -Jaren
December 12, 200817 yr Got a foot in my front yard, with more on the way!! Nice seeing snow in the dirty south, pretty cool So much for global warming eh.
December 12, 200817 yr Supposed to get 2-4" tomorrow, which means 6-8" at work. I don't get my snow tires till Saturday I'll probably make up a set of chains from some old ones at work tomorrow.
December 12, 200817 yr I was there for the 97 ice storm. I was living just off Western Ave in Augusta, didn't have power for a week. Could see the capital dome lit up real nice from my bedroom window, though- Hopefully this one isn't that bad for you.
December 12, 200817 yr What a Nice Picture! Here Never Snows -obviously- in Tropics Just Rains a Huge Amount of Water... but Sometimes it Rains Icy Drops very Hard Enough to Broke some Glass... The Weird Thing this Year, is that -Right Now- We are under Red Alert in the North Coast, Due to the Flood, Caused by Huge Rains at the Cities of La Ceiba and Tela ... How Could it Be in December? !!! Here Rainy Season Starts in May and Ends by November... So World`s Climate is Getting Weird...
December 12, 200817 yr Author So much for global warming eh. Yeah, this is the coldest year of the decade.... I demand Al Gore stands up and applogosies for the global hysteria he caused with his kindergarden graph that went up into the clouds to greet the giants.....
December 13, 200817 yr The iced white pine cone and tassel- the NEW state flower for Maine! That's not quite as much ice as the previous "big one", and I can see you're still online. Did you loose power at all? I still remember hearing the transformers popping all around my neighborhood- Hear a pop that kinda sounded like a fireworks mortar, then about 15-30seconds later the lid would land in the street. Then the substation up the hill from the library went off, lit up the sky and you could feel the rumble in the ground. Wild night.
December 13, 200817 yr I used to be involved with the narrow gauge railroad there in Alna. Actually, the property I lived on in Weeks Mills was one mile from the Weeks Mills Wye, and the branch to Winslow ran through my backyard. I spent hours out there on mountain bikes, cross country skis, horseback- Can't really do that anymore, Google maps is showing a bunch of new houses, roads that weren't there when I was a kid...........
