A winter storm system is forecasted to move through New Hampshire in the middle of this week, causing rain and wet snow which will impact travel plans on Wednesday morning. The northern two-thirds of New Hampshire will be under a winter advisory through Wednesday morning, with overnight snow changing to a wintry mix across southern New Hampshire and possibly mixing with rain in the southern Lakes Region. Travel will be difficult due to snow changing to rain for many, and mainly rain along the coast, but conditions are expected to improve for traveling during Wednesday afternoon as the heavy rain and snow moves out.
The best chance for slippery roads will be across southwestern, central, and northern New Hampshire, while areas southeast and along the coast will see a quicker transition to rain. Snow accumulation is expected to be minimal, but a few inches of snow will be possible from Concord north and west before changing to rain. As a result, there is the potential for slippery roads in these areas, so residents are advised to stay weather aware and informed by downloading the WMUR app for weather alerts. Remember to follow the Storm Watch 9 team on social media for the latest updates on the weather conditions.
In addition, a dry, bright, and cool Wednesday night and Thanksgiving holiday are forecasted following the departure of the storm system on Wednesday afternoon.
