Summary

Two storm systems are expected to impact travel over the long weekend.
Snowfall of 4 to 8 inches is likely across much of New Hampshire on Tuesday.
Sunday will see a mix of rain and snow with travel impacts in northern areas.

Residents are advised to prepare for significant weather disruptions as two storm systems approach. The first system arriving Sunday will usher in a chilly rain for southern New Hampshire, while northern areas can expect light snow, with potential travel impacts during the afternoon and early evening. Monday offers a brief respite with sunny skies before the next, more substantial storm system moves in.

This second storm is predicted to bring the first statewide snowfall of the season on Tuesday, with computer models indicating snow will begin by sunrise and continue throughout the day. Heavy bands of snow are anticipated by the afternoon and evening, tapering off by midnight. Most areas, including Manchester, Concord, and Nashua, could see accumulations of 4 to 8 inches.

Lesser amounts are expected north of the White Mountains and directly along the coast. Travelers are urged to stay informed and exercise caution, especially during peak travel times. Residents can utilize weather apps for real-time alerts and updates to navigate the changing conditions safely.
