According to poetic legend, March is supposed to come in roaring like a lion. Well, this March came here yesterday like a sea serpent, causing exceedingly high tides and spouting smoke-like fog, as you see here in Center Harbor:.
That fog became torrential rain that created small lakes in the woods.
Today, March turned into a polar bear bellowing strong Arctic-Canadian winds that produced power outages here, wind chills well below zero, and whitecaps whipping up Great Cove:. It’s also sunny and clear, but I wouldn’t recommend hiking in it. (Brooklin, Maine)
