It will be more eventful than what weve been seeing so far. Theres your current temperatures, its in the teens right now in northern New Hampshire, 20s elsewhere. So the cold air is in place, were setting the stage for precipitation to fall as snow. Clouds have been taking over the last hour or two, and thats of course in advance of the system thats headed in our direction. A winter storm warning in effect for the northern half of the state and in the southern part of New Hampshire, its a Winter Weather advisory thats in effect. That simply means maybe a little less snow in southern New Hampshire than northern New Hampshire, but were all going to be dealing with shovels and snowblowers and plows and things like that. There will be enough for that everywhere. So the clouds moving in and then we take a look at the precipitation moving in this direction, not that impressive just yet. Can you see it starts as snow, but quickly changes over. As it moves closer to us, the atmosphere continue to push it into snow instead of rain for a while. But eventually warmer air will move in at upper levels of the atmosphere first and then at ground level in the southern part of the state and that will change things over through the day tomorrow, especially in the southern maybe half or twothirds of the state. Well show you that. Heres the system thats heading in our direction, and as it gets up into the midwest here during the evening hours and overnight tonight, it spawns a new storm just off shore here. And thats what continues to bring cold air into the region, keeping it as snow, a little bit longer, enough for us to see some accumulation. Here comes the snow, moving in after 2 00 a. M.

By 10 00 that line has moved up almost to the lakes region at least through concord and toward the sea cost and continues to push through. That starts to cut off accumulation, and rain starting to mix in in the southern part of the state as well, first at the sea cost and pushing inland through the day as well. So in the afternoon, it will mostly just be snow up north and everywhere else a mixture of wintery mix type of situation, sleet, freezing rain and eventually some rain, things clearing out by the time we get into wednesday and thursday, as you can see here. So of course how much snow will fall out of this, heres the latest estimates, not a lot of change from what weve been telling you the last couple days. Highest amounts will be the the North Country and down through the Mount Washington valley, almost down to the lakes region. Even three to six inches in the southern part of the state where that will be the lowest amount, so were definitely dealing with plowable snow amounts here.

We finally have a winter forecast with some teeth for you, as we head into the next 24 hours. Youll notice a little bit of every type of precipitation in many parts of the state, although northern New Hampshire mostly snow, i think, although there could be a little mixing there. Temperatures in the teens in northern New Hampshire, 20s everywhere else at the moment. There, and of course thats just in. That helps it all start as snow during the overnight hours, but that will change as we go through the day tomorrow. We have a Winter Weather advisory in effect for central and southern New Hampshire, and mountains north water. Its a winter storm warning and theres a look at the clouds that have taken over our skies. Thats in advance of the precipitation, which has begun moving through parts of pennsylvania and new york, and headed in our direction. But you can see that it does include a little bit of everything here, snow, some mixed precipitation and rain, thats sort of the progression that will go through tomorrow as well. The center of the storm will be transferring its energy to a secondary low Pressure Center just off the coast as is so typically the case with winter storms around this region. First the timeline in terms of the precipitation type, it moves in between two and five a. M. Around the granite state, the farther north you are the later it moves in, but just a few hours behind. Into the beginning of the morning commute, that snow is coming down heavily and already piling up quickly. Several inches accumulating before we see the mixed precipitation areas, the pink moving on in, that would be sleet and freezing rain for a while, because those temperatures stay below the 32degree mark for a good portion of the storm, but not all everywhere. As we go through the morning hours, the middle and end of the morning commute and into the mid morning hours, this pink mixed precipitation area here will be trying to move into southern New Hampshire and moving up toward central New Hampshire, parts of the upper valley, so youre going to start seeing that mixing in, and then eventually in southern New Hampshire, particularly southeastern New Hampshire over toward the coast with with winds coming the off the ocean, it changes over the plain rain. Could even pour for a time in the afternoon, near the coast. Then tomorrow afternoon the rest of it will be a mixture of rain, freezing rain, sleet and some snow in northern New Hampshire, kind of packing down that snow then things pretty much just come to an end as you can see there. In terms of accumulations of snow, three to circumstances inches from the seacoast through all of southern New Hampshire, head up north water just a little bit into the hillary terrain, 4 to 8inch eggs. North end of the lakes, youre starting to cross over into higher amounts to this 5 to 10inch area which could come farther south, well have to see how that works out. In terms of the temperatures, as its snowing tomorrow were below 32 for a good portion of the morning, but as we get into, as can you see the timeline here, 10 00 tomorrow morning, southern New Hampshire getting right around 32, trying to change over, first at the seacoast it could happen. As the temperatures rise and, rain is developing in southern parts of the state, some of it freezing rain farther to the north. Once we get past that system, things calm down a bit, especially toward new years eve. Temperatures come up, though, so it wont be too bad of a new jean thats good news. Thank you, josh.
