Weather in February

As February rolls in, the intense cold of the Madawaska winters persists, rendering the landscape a continued white spectacle.

Higher humidity coupled with the overcast sky continues to subdue the sunlight and lessen the overall visibility. The wind speed slows down slightly, but does little to alleviate the bite of the cold.
