Oh, The Colors!

Looks like some nasty precipiation heading this way. I love watching storms like this slowly work their way west from Buffalo/Great Lakes to eventually lose power and totally disappoint me when they get to central NY...

Maine USGS Makes the US a little more Green

Just got this email from Augusta, Maine's Water Science Center and they really impressed me with this one. They have developed an instrument powered by both wind and solar energy to measure rain and snowfall in remote regions in Maine in order to predict the amount of spring meltwater to be expected in Maine's reservoirs. 

The whole article can be seen on the USGS website.
