I always thought that was kinda cool when you're in upstate NY approaching the Quebec border and some of the signs are in French and English.
Maine is a lot colder I'm sure.
How do the locals determine when they should close the schools for snow days? In North Jersey, ithey're shut down if it's anything > 3".
You guys probably remain open if there's 6-8 I'm sure.

they usually shut down school during ice storms outside of that 8-12 predicted and four on the ground. usually they try to get half a day so we do not have to make up a day in june.
we start school early like last week of august so they can give a couple weeks off for potato harvest its tradition now.

Lived in Florida for several years (Tampa Bay area).
I would rather tolerate the 3-4 months of Winter in the Northeast than dealing with 10 months of unbearable heat and humidity. Not to mention the constant thunderstorms.
Plus most people down there are very slow and most Millennials have some kind of drug problem.
Good riddance to that hell-hole!

worked part time in Harker Heights Texas and Nolanville. for a while . summers were brutal. 110 for highs, working construction roofs were the worse. literally wore black gloves with green shells and two layers of pants to be able to lay asphalt shingles.
when it rained the roads became like a sheet of ice. slippery the oil in the tar would make a thin layer oil on top and was impossible to drive for first 30 minutes.
