What happened
The episode as NWS GYX wrote it up.
An area of low pressure moved through the Great Lakes and into the St. Lawrence Valley on Tuesday, November 25th. Snow fell north of the associated warm front as the low moved slowly northeast. Warmer air eventually worked its way northward and changed the precipitation to rain. Heavy snow fell across Northern Oxford and Northern Franklin Counties with 13 inches reported in Phillips and 9 inches in Bethel. Coastal and interior sections of western Maine had little or no snow as the precipitation fell mostly as rain.
What forecasters said that day

.SYNOPSIS...
A STORM SYSTEM WILL MOVE SLOWLY EAST ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES TODAY
AND TONIGHT. A TRAILING FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL PUSH EAST ACROSS
NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND TONIGHT. THE LOW WILL WEAKEN AND MEANDER
THROUGH EASTERN CANADA WHILE A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OFF
THE EAST COAST WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT. ANOTHER LOW AND
FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL MOVE EAST TO THE EASTERN SEABOARD FRIDAY AND
FRIDAY NIGHT THEN PUSH OFF THE COAST ON SATURDAY. HIGH PRESSURE

SOUTHWEST NEW HAMPSHIRE.
CONTINUING WINTER STORM WARNINGS FOR MOUNTAINS OF MAINE AND NEW

CONTINUING WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES FOR THE FOOTHILLS OF MAINE

CONTINUING FLOOD WATCHES FOR SOUTHEAST NEW HAMPSHIRE AND SOUTHERN
MAINE. MODELS STILL SHOWING 2 TO 3 INCHES WITH LOCAL AMOUNTS OF 4
INCHES. FLOODING MAY BECOME AN ISSUE LATER TODAY AND TONIGHT.
FORECAST PROBLEM FOR THIS MORNING WILL BE THE TRANSITION FROM SNOW
TO RAIN IN NORTHERN ZONES ALONG WITH SNOW FALL AMOUNTS. SPOTTER
REPORTS ONLY INDICATING A HALF TO 1 INCH AMOUNTS IN THE FOOTHILLS
OF MAINE WITH ISOLATED 3 INCH AMOUNTS IN WEST CENTRAL NEW
HAMPSHIRE GENERALLY IN THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS. APPEARS THAT 1 TO 3
INCH AMOUNTS SHOULD COVER MOST LOCATIONS ALTHOUGH A FEW 3 TO 5
AMOUNTS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION. IN ADDITION SOME POCKETS OF
FREEZING RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE. EXPECT WARMER AIR FLOWING INTO THE
REGION ON STRONG LOW LEVEL JET TO EVENTUALLY SCOUR OUT COLDER AIR
IN THESE LOCATION WITH SNOW CHANGING TO RAIN.
RAIN WILL BECOME HEAVY AT TIMES OVER THE REMAINDER OF SOUTHERN
MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE LATER THIS MORNING INTO THE AFTERNOON AS
STRONG OVER-RUNNING AND GOOD DYNAMICS ALOFT COMBINE WITH ABUNDANT
MOISTURE OFF THE ATLANTIC.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 AM WEDNESDAY/...

THE OCCLUSION WILL CHANGE ANY SHOWERS IN SOUTHWEST ZONES TO SNOW
SHOWERS AFTER MIDNIGHT.

THE BULK OF THE HEAVY MIXED PRECIPITATION AND WIND WILL HAVE ALSO
PUSHED TO OUR E. IN ITS WAKE COLDER WX WILL SLOWLY FILTER IN WITH
SOME -SHSN ACTIVITY EXPECTED. ANY MIXED -SHSN AND -SHRA WILL BE
CONFINED TO MORE EASTERN ZONES ON WEDNESDAY. FINALLY ENOUGH COLD
AIR MOVES IN SO ANY PRCP SHOULD BE ISOLD TO SCT -SHSN WEDNESDAY
NGT THRU THURSDAY NGT THOUGH ANY PRCP AMOUNTS WILL BE
INSIGNIFICANT. ANOTHER LOW AND SFC FNT MOVE TO THE E COAST FRIDAY
AND FRIDAY NGT BRINGING MORE MIXED PRCP...MAINLY -SN NORTHERN

LEAST SCA CONDITIONS.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
WILL CONT THE FLOOD WATCH FOR TDA AND TNGT FOR MUCH OF CENTRAL AND
SE NEW HAMPSHIRE AND SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL MAINE. MODELS STILL
SHOWING POTENTIAL FOR 1 TO 3 INCHES OF PRCP. ANY SN WILL CHANGE
TO RN AND MELT TDA OR EARLY TNGT SO ANY SN WILL GO INTO RUNOFF.
THERE COULD BE SOME HIGHER QPF AMOUNTS IN FAVORED UPSLOPE AREAS
WITH A STRONG E SE FLOW PUSHING ABUNDANT ATLANTIC MOISTURE INLAND.
