The Top 10 Snowiest Winters in Northern Maine
This winter has made the top 10 list of the snowiest on record in northern Maine, based on snowfall totals from the National Weather Service Office in Caribou.
An additional 3 inches of snow fell Thursday (April 24) at Caribou, bringing the seasonal total to 150.4 inches. That's still about 4 feet below the snowfall totals in 2007-08, the snowiest winter ever in Aroostook County. Hopefully that's a record that will stand a good, long time.
