Maine Snowstorm Leaves Nearly 265,000 Without Power

The power outages in some areas appear “to be the most since the wind storm of Oct 2017,” the National Weather Service in Caribou said.
Winds will “bring 20—30 degree cooler air to the region,” the National Weather Service said, but the snow “will taper off overnight into Saturday across northern New England (especially Maine) after some significant accumulations.”
That’s as the Southeast braces for severe weather, including tornadoes, Easter Sunday.
“Easter Sunday could be a very dangerous day in the Southeast,” CNN meteorologist Dave Hennen said. “All of the ingredients for severe weather are likely coming together. You have strong low pressure, strong wind shear, ample Gulf of Mexico moisture, that could lead to multiple tornadoes across the Southeast.”
