Hello everyone!

Today will feature a very chilly start with temps below zero for all locations in Maine and New Hampshire. Winds today will be light as we are sitting under one of the ingredients for our storm, a high pressure system. This high pressure system will shift east and act as a block to prevent the storm from going out to sea. As of now it looks like light snow develops late morning Thursday and becomes heavier Thursday afternoon possibly mixing with sleet or freezing rain. By nightfall, everyone is all snow and the snow will be very heavy with snowfall rates exceeding 2-3″/hour. Winds will also become very gusty out of the NE at 30-40 mph. Snow continues into Friday morning winding down towards lunchtime. Again, we are still 2 days away so lots could change but that is my current idea of what will play out. I will wait until the 10am models to make any accumulation predictions. As for snowday predictions, too early to say but it looks good for erly dismissal Thursday and snowday OR delay Friday.
