Anyone been to Maine 1st of May

I believe you can go to the Weather Channel and put in the town/state and get the averages for any month of the year. or possibly just do a Google search.

I live here and our averages have been way off..Im hoping sometime in the middle of April it will be safe to fill my water tank and test plumbing exc in my new TT. We hope to go early May also. Send me a pm anytime. Be glad to let you no what is going on with the weather.

We have been in May before. It was fine. No crowds, most things were open or in the process of opening. Everyone very welcoming. A few places not open.

Cool weather.

I think this year, May in Maine (and all of New England for that matter) will be fine. It's clear that there will be an early spring this year. The weather pattern has already shifted into the spring setup and the jet stream has started north. The "boids are choiping" earlier this spring than I remember. I haven't heard any peepers yet, but I expect to any time now.

As long as you're not talking Presque Isle, I think you'll be fine.

...I hope your right and it has been nice for this time of year. I guess I try not to get my hopes up and that way I wont be so disappointed.:)..OP should be fine.

Northern Maine, the weather could be hit or miss. You might even get snow !

theoldwizard1, it will around the coast and not near Canada

We were into Maine very early in May in 2016. Check the CGs. Some don't open till mid month. Those we did find open were near empty & yes, the weather can be iffy.
