Low is located off the NC coastline about 50 miles. Moving northward a little faster than progged, and snow flurries have already started to fall in Keene. Bands of snow showers will continue to sweep across the region through midnight. The heaviest / steadiest snow will occur between 3am and 6am. Accumulation by daybreak of 1 - 2 inches is possible. An addition .5 to 1 inch is possible through noon tomorrow as the low pulls northward and winds pick up. The current HPC forecast is a 967mb low north of Maine by tomorrow afternoon!
Delay potential: have upper the chance to 50% for a delay tomorrow. The timing of the storm has shifted forward and therefore, the heaviest snowfall will be occuring around rush hour time. This in addition to still icy roads as well as an inch already on the ground could be enough. However, one inch is usually not enough in most situations so that's where the uncertainty lies. If two inches have accumulated by day break with snow still falling, then a delay is more likely.
