Winter Weather Advisory: Snow, Sleet, Icy Roads In New Hampshire

GRAY, ME — Forecasters at the National Weather Service are warning of a "quick moving" storm that could bring up to 6 inches of snow to some parts of New Hampshire as well as ice and sleet — leading to slippery road conditions.

The storm system is expected to start around 10 p.m. Friday and last through 4 p.m. Saturday. The "winter weather advisory" was issued just after 3 p.m. Friday.

"A burst of snowfall is expected on the leading edge of precipitation tonight followed by a transition to sleet and freezing rain from southwest to northeast across southern New Hampshire and southernmost Maine late tonight and Saturday morning," the alert said. "Some of that snow may briefly be moderate to heavy before the transition. Farther north, mostly snow is expected."
