That pulling away from the northeast, and what it left behind is some additional snow to add to the total in concord. so far this year as we add it all up, 20. 3 inches in the state capital. yes. well above where we were a short week or two ago, but nowhere close to the average, which is about double that at 39. 5 and nowhere close to where we were last year at this time, 64. 8 inches of snow. so even though it has turned more wintery in the last couple weeks, no where close to where we were at this point last year. we may add for snow over the as we go into wednesday well see another band of snow showers, squalls late morning and afternoon. So be on guard for that, even though a good part of the day will be dry. it will be like summer thunderstorms, where its mainly quiet a good part of the day, then you get hit with a snow shower or isolated squall. same thing on focus, then the focus all on the cold air. most of the action were tracking for the next couple days sitting back to our west. plenty of breaks here, this is not a big storm. but there are bands of snow showers and squalls back to the west that tend to move on in over the next couple of days. temperature wise, southeastern zones, mid to upper 20s. the monadnock region similar temperatures, some of the higher terrain a little cooler. same story in the mound sunapee area through the lake sunapee zone, down through newport and enfield, lower to mid 20s. lakes region lower to mid 20s on average. Center Harbor through tilton and upper teen as long the canadian border, and 20s for many through the heart of the white mountains. where do we end up overnight tonight . not a big temperature fall, teens to around 20, thats due to an increase in cloud cover. acts as a blanket and protects the warmth from escaping into the atmosphere or prevents it. so were not talking about a major cooldown until later on this week. again snow showers and squalls, heres a look at the timeline tonight, its dry outside of a few flurries up north. for the morning commute, best chance of any flakes will be in the upper valley, lakes region and points north. best shot, snow showers and squalls midday through the afternoon. that will tend to move on through and there are more back to the west that may arrive on thursday before it dries out and really cools down. beyond that weve got temperatures that will be running well below the average, and colder than weve seen at any point so far this season, as we go through friday and the weekend. here we go for tonight, mostly cloudy, could be a flurry up beyond that time frame weve got sunshine, but plenty of clouds for the next couple days, watch for a brief squall during the afternoon tomorrow, same story on thursday, bright, colder friday, but thats nothing compared to the chill that moves in over the weekend. jamie happy voting day, New Hampshire. if youre watching the polling numbers come in tonight, you can also check out the bruins and the celtics, they both have games tonight. the bruins will skate at home against the l.
