The winter of 2015-2016 has been very gentle with us here in Downeast Maine - so far. A few days ago we were experiencing and enjoying 60 degree weather and I could see a few buds pepping out on the lilac bush. It was too good to be true.
Last Friday we received an nice blast of cold air and a downfall of about 15 inches of the white stuff. It was a shock to jump back into genuine winter mode.
Today the wind is whipping about at 10 to 20 miles an hour with gusts a little higher. Temperature is 20 with a wind chill of 10. We are now being threatened with another blizzard and an additional foot or so of snow. Can't that darn Pennsylvania groundhog ever get it right? The snow blower has been returned to it seasonal place of honor and stands ready.
