Today is Groundhog Day! Stupid Phil in Punxsutawney saw his shadow so that means 6 more weeks of winter! Of course here in Downeast Maine winter came in with a vengeance on Saturday with close to 2 feet of snow! Now there's more on the way!

There is a Winter Storm Watch for Downeast Maine and the Bangor area from Thursday night through late Friday night.
