Our SnowFighters have done a great job keeping our primary routes in town clear. This short video was taken on Cross Road and it was cleared by a DPW SnowFighter just minutes later. Snow should be winding down soon, though blowing and drifting may continue into Sunday.

…and in West Cumberland, visibility is just as bad. It may be hard to tell in the video but the wind is rocking the cruiser. Winn Road by Pine Ridge Acres is one example where drifting is occurring. Complete whiteout conditions have been encountered. ❄️

Here’s a peek at current conditions looking up Beach Drive at Broad Cove Reserve along the Foreside.

Visibility is much worse while in motion. Please use caution if you must travel.
