New Hampshire is preparing for a notable weather shift as a snowfall is anticipated for Tuesday. Residents will awaken to snowflakes across the state, with varying impacts based on location.
Weather Forecast for New Hampshire
Meteorologist Matt Honig indicates that southern areas of New Hampshire may experience light snowfall that transitions to rain as temperatures rise throughout the day. In contrast, central and northern regions could see snow lingering into the afternoon.
Morning Commute Challenges
- Roads may be slick during the morning commute.
- Cars and grassy areas could be coated with snow.
- Primary roadways are expected to remain manageable.
A moderate snowfall will initially blanket southern New Hampshire. This precipitation will move northward into the Lakes Region and parts of the White Mountains by midday Tuesday. As temperatures increase, light rain may accompany lingering flurries.
Accumulation Expectations
Weather conditions will lead to variable snow accumulations:
- Southern New Hampshire: minimal accumulation.
- Central and northern regions: potential for coatings and an inch or two of snow.
- Higher elevations in the White Mountains: possibly up to 3 inches of snow.
The weather system, originating from a clipper crossing Michigan, will bring early snow on Tuesday, with conditions clearing by the evening. Precipitation is expected to conclude around 7 PM.
Temperature Trends
Temperatures are forecasted to be chilly, ranging from the mid-30s in northern areas to mid-40s in southern regions. After the snow and rain clear, Wednesday will provide bright, cooler conditions with highs mostly in the 40s.
Looking Ahead
As the week progresses, New Hampshire is likely to experience a warm-up. Expected temperatures include:
- Thursday: highs in the 50s.
- Friday: reaching above 60 degrees.
While winter-like conditions persist early this week, a much-anticipated warming trend is on the horizon.
