Heavy Snow in Central Somerset, Maine

By midday on the 24th precipitation overspread the western Maine mountains. Strong lift helped cool a marginal air mass so that any rain or mix flipped to moderate to heavy snow in the afternoon and evening. Total snow accumulations were generally in the 6 to 8 inch range.

Low pressure meandered into the Ohio River Valley on the evening of the November 23rd and began to weaken as secondary development took place over coastal North Carolina. This secondary area of low pressure then rapidly strengthened on the 24th and spread rain and snow over northern New England. Late on the evening of the 24th an upstream shortwave kicked the storm out to sea, limiting the overall duration of snow in the mountains.
