Coming attractions: More snow Thursday night
Snow expected Thursday night into Friday and the possibility of more snow Saturday night.
MANCHESTER, NH — Enjoy the reprieve from shoveling, for now. The next wave of snow is expected to blow in sometime Thursday night, according to the National Weather Service.
Light snow across New Hampshire and Western Maine should add a few more inches to the most recent layer, which dumped another 12-14 inches across Hillsborough County and shut down schools for two days.
The wild card is still Saturday’s storm. It all depends on how the arctic winds blow, according to meteorologists, who we like to call “weather guessers” at times like this.
The biggest problem has been getting snow piles cleared to make way for plows and vehicles. Warmer temperatures Tuesday caused some melt, which will refreeze overnight Tuesday and could result in some icy patches for Wednesday, according to the weather service.
Below is the next week’s worth of weather at a glance from the Weather Underground, which includes the “potential snow storm” Saturday night, but otherwise, guaranteed consistently cold days, frigid nights and no spring weather in sight.
