You already know it is coming. Fairly quickly, you will see the primary purple leaf of the season in your entrance yard. After which…it is you already know what. The “W” phrase. With the “S” phrase. No, the opposite one. SNOW.

That received us questioning if it had ever snowed right here in Maine or New Hampshire in August. It will need to have in some unspecified time in the future, proper? Possibly within the “days of yore” earlier than this local weather change factor actually kicked in.

Has It Ever Snowed in Maine or New Hampshire in August?

Fortunately, NO. In accordance with our pals on the Nationwide Climate Service, the earliest it has ever snowed in Maine (with some accumulation) is in September. On September 29, 1991, Caribou, Maine, noticed some snow.

What about in New Hampshire? Harmony noticed its earliest snow ever in October of 1979. Mt Washington often sees its first snow in September, with about six days of snowfall! It does snow in June on Mt. Washington, however fortunately, the snow takes July and August off.

Each states often see a wee little bit of snow in late November. Benefit from the summer season and no complaining in regards to the warmth. The “S” Phrase…is not too far behind!
