FRYEBURG, Maine — Residents in parts of northern New England are waking up to the first substantial snowfall of the season. 

Thanks to a cold front, rain turned into snow Saturday evening over a large swath that stretched from middle Vermont across New Hampshire and into western Maine.

New Hampshire's Mount Washington recorded 5 inches of snow. 

Other areas saw snowfall of up to 4 inches, mostly in mountains.

 Meteorologists say the arrival of colder weather means it’s time for New Englanders to get leaves raked and complete yard-work before the ground freezes.
