A storm that brought heavy snowfall early Thursday afternoon was the latest in a string of winter storms to impact Maine.

The second of five storms that will slam the eastern half of the United States with snow and ice over a two week period is on the way – and this one has more snow than the first.

TIMING OF SNOW: Snow arrives late morning for most of Maine, quickly picking up in intensity. Heavy snowfall is likely early to mid afternoon, gradually tapering off heading into the evening. Snow will likely end as some freezing drizzle or sleet, an icy glaze is likely on top of the snow. All precipitation should be mostly over by 9pm.
