Fortunately only a dusting in the bangor area.
Fishing is like playing at Carnegie Hall, when your good your good. But do you know how to get to Carnegie Hall? PRACTICE!

Around 5" new snow in Kennebec County.  The "jackpot" spots varied from storm to storm over the last week.  We've had about 50" over the course of the week in my yard.  Mother Nature spread the load around pretty evenly so I bet most spots are about the same....except for the far north.  They seemed to catch a rare break.

How's the big lake looking?   From what I could tell, a lot of it froze last Friday night, but then promptly got several feet of snow dumped on only an inch or two of ice.  Not usually a good combo.

Trust me, when the Zamboni driver says "You won't catch fish through that hole", he knows of what he speaks.

That's a stack. 

Just NW of Augusta, we've added 50" on top of the 12-18" of glacier that was already at the bottom the deck before the parade of storms kicked in.

On the news this morning - Andover has 79" and Farmington 84" on the ground, right now. :'(

We've broken 3 shear pins on our snowblower ---- one on each of the last 3 storms. Fortunately, I stocked up on a few of them 2 years ago when we had our last series of big snow storms.

Saw a doe next to RT1 in Jonesboro this morning she was struggling. Just started building the herd back up. One step forward 2 steps back. I hate groundhogs as much as I hate coyotes now.
