First Snow of the season

The fist major weather event for New England for the "not even winter yet" event. This system has been reaping havoc around the country during the Thanksgiving holiday week.

[Snow Accum Forecast] Accumulating snow will come in 2 parts. First part through just after midnight tonight, heaviest N of the Pike; Second part Mon night/Tue AM, heaviest eastern MA. This is total accum into Tue morning.

...A LONG LASTING WINTER STORM WILL BRING TWO BOUTS OF SNOW TO
PORTIONS OF THE REGION INTO TUESDAY...

.A complex area of low pressure will continue to develop off the
southern New England coastline tonight. Snow will spread across
southern New Hampshire this evening and into far southwestern
portions of Maine. The snow may be heavy at times along and near
the New Hampshire Massachusetts border as well as over the higher
terrain of southern New Hampshire where snowfall rates of an inch
per hour are possible.

Snow is expected to decrease in intensity during the day on
Monday with another round of heavier snow possible Monday night
into Tuesday primarily affecting southern and central portions of
central Maine as well as eastern portions of New Hampshire.

Due to the long duration nature of this winter storm, storm total
snowfall amounts will continue to be challenging to forecast.
However, the prolonged period of snow will lead to wintry driving
conditions lasting into Tuesday.

inches into early Monday. Thereafter, a few additional inches
of snow expected, mainly Monday night into early Tuesday.

* WHERE...Portions of central and southern New Hampshire.

* WHEN...Until 7 AM EST Tuesday.

affect the morning and evening commutes on Monday.
