In northern Maine'sAroostookCounty, where about 20 caucuses were scheduled for Friday night, sleet and as much as a half foot of snow were expected to accumulate before the storm ends, the National Weather Service said.
Freezing rain, sleet and smaller accumulations of snow were expected in other areas, but the weather is expected to be clear by Saturday when the bulk of the caucuses are held in Grange and town halls, schools, churches and fire stations all over the state.
Dennistown near the western Maine border with Canada held a three-person caucus on Tuesday, and neighboring Moose River's was even smaller -- one person, said Marc Pembroke, who also organized Friday's caucus in Jackman, which drew two people.
Exposures of glacial lake sediments known as varves were found along Sandy Stream on the border between Dennistown Plantation and Moose River, northern SomersetCounty, approximately 3 miles north of the village of Jackman (Figure 1).
He expanded his work into southern Maine based on studies of varves from glacial lake deposits in the Naples and Cornish areas in Maine, matching them with the record from Glacial Lake Merrimack in the Merrimack River valley in New Hampshire, and then to the Connecticut River valley.
Road test-borings by the Maine Department of Transportation and monitor-well borings drilled as part of the Maine Geological Survey aquifer mapping program have reported long varve sections in northern AroostookCounty, and in central and northern SomersetCounty.
