Default XC skiing in Acadia NP or White Mountains

We want to spend a week in February XC skiing and snowshoing and are
thinking about going to Acadia NP (Maine) or the White Mountains (New
Hampshire). What weather and snow conditions can we expect in these
places? What are the pros and cons for each place?

Acadia is obviously coastal and snow will be less reliable than the White
Mountains. White Mtns has several excellent groomed areas:

Given snow in Acadia, it has a lot of nice carriage roads for ski-touring.
Either would be good for snowshoes. Whites will offer more challenging
terrain, Acadia more unique coastal scenery.
