A tight pressure gradient between intense low pressure across southern New England and high pressure to the north produced strong east winds across Downeast Maine. The strongest winds occurred from the evening of the 25th into the early morning hours of the 26th. Wind gusts of 50 to 60 mph occurred across interior Downeast areas...with 60 to 70 mph gusts along the coast.
The combination of strong winds and wet ground led to thousands of trees being uprooted or snapped across the region. The most extensive tree damage was reported across southwest portions of Hancock county including Deer Isle...Stonington...Brooklin...Sedgwick...Blue Hill and Mount Desert Island. The falling trees brought down many power lines resulting in thousands of customers loosing power. The damage to the power infrastructure was extensive enough that in some locations power was not restored for several days. The falling trees also blocked many roads. In one instance...a tree fell on a parked unoccupied vehicle producing significant damage.
The low became nearly stationary across southern New England while several areas of moisture rotated around the low...producing areas of heavy snow across portions of northern Maine. The first round of heavy snow occurred from the overnight hours of the 24th into the 25th when 7 to 11 inches of accumulation were reported across  northern portions of Somerset and Piscataquis counties. A second interval of heavy snow occurred during the 26th affecting portions of northern Penobscot and northwest Aroostook counties. During this second event....7 to 12 inches of accumulation were reported across northwest Aroostook county with 5 to 9 inches across portions of northern Penobscot county.
