Not Much Snow in Maine

With both pictures and prose, blogger Carey Kish, in a MaineToday.com post dated 8 January 2007, shows what it's like this "winter" way up north. Can you say 'climate change'?

Kish describes a day trek in the area of Rumford Whitecap Mountain, including the sentence: "Turning into the wind I could trace the course of the Appalachian Trail and its serrated route curving northward from the Mahoosucs and bent on Katahdin miles away."

What does a warmer than usual, less snowy than usual winter auger for black flies this spring? And for water sources this summer?
