      I was in Bridgton in 1978. I had just turned 18 and remember the National Guard working on 128, etc.. in 1976 I helped paint the roof of a barn in Lovell. A Mr Koops. Great times.

    You forgot to mention that if you're outside in that kind of weather for any length of time, the condensation from your nose and your mouth will freeze into ice on your beard and your mustache up to a1/4 inch. If you bring boiling water outside in an open container at that temperature it will freeze if you toss it into the air and it will turn into snow instantly.

    I grew up in CT. I’m now in Denver. Miss New England. Visited my folks during labor day and realized during the night that all I heard was crickets, owls, and rain. No sirens, no car alarms, no homeless screams tripping on drugs…amazing. I don’t think New England by the coast is bad at all. In Denver it snows just like this…except they don’t plow or clean roads. They don’t cancel things. Many accidents. 9n New England they cancel and give you at least 90 min delays or the day off lol.
