...Line of Heavy Snow Showers in Eastern Maine This Morning...

A line of heavy snow showers extends from Mars Hill down through
Bangor this morning. This line is reducing visibilities down to
one half mile at times as well as a quick accumulation of snow up
to one inch. Those traveling Route 1 from Mars Hill down toward
Princeton and I95 from Houlton toward Bangor should use caution
this morning.

Cold air filtering behind this line will likely result in
slippery conditions on untreated roadways and bridge as any
standing water refreezes. Drive slowly, keep your distance from
the car ahead of you, and keep your headlights on.
