Christmas Eve 2024 Snowfall Totals in Maine

There's something magical about a white Christmas in Maine with snow blanketing the ground for a picture-perfect scene.

Mother Nature decided to gift an early Christmas present by bringing some fresh powder on the holiday eve, December 24, 2024, but making sure not to overdo it and bury the state either.

According to National Weather Service snowfall totals though, some towns managed to get 8 inches of snow. Break out the ruler!

Can you imagine getting over 40 inches of snow? That's insane. Better make sure your snowblower is good and ready for something like that.

I mean, look, snow in Maine is wonderful, but sometimes when the state gets walloped with it, all you can do is think about when summer is going to roll back around.

Again, thankfully, this recent storm only brought just enough to capture that Hallmark Christmas look and not "The Day After Tomorrow."

Enjoy the snow and Christmas in Maine!
