There is no denying that we had a mild fall and have had, so far, a mild winter.  However, in the past, we have been known to have some wild weather here in the Pine Tree State.

Yes, when it comes to weather, Maine is a really safe place to live.  While we do get a few big snow storms or Nor'easters each winter, we rarely have to deal with hurricanes, ice storms, or tornadoes.

Notice I said "rarely"?

Yes, those types of weather events do happen in the Pine Tree State.  Those of us with kids probably remember how our trick-or-treating plans were quite a bit different about four years ago and most of us remember a particular ice storm.

Check out our list of really memorable weather events that (fairly) recently happened here in Maine.

Personally, I had a few issues trying to get to a DJ gig back in the summer of 2017.  A series of tornadoes ripped through Western Maine, bringing down trees.  Those trees blocked several major roads, including Route 302.  Fortunately, the great first responders of that area set up a series of detours that allowed me to make it to my job in time.
