    Areas affected...portions of Massachusetts into New Hampshire and
    southern Maine

    Concerning...Winter mixed precipitation=20

    Valid 231847Z - 232145Z

    SUMMARY...Wintry mixed precipitation across portions of
    Massachusetts into southern New Hampshire should transition to
    mostly snow over the next few hours. Meanwhile, moderate to briefly
    heavy snow may persist across portions of southern Maine, with an
    instance or two of 1+ inch/hr snowfall rates still possible into
    mid-afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...A 992 mb surface low is located roughly 200 nm offshore
    of the coast of ME, and continues to progress eastward along with
    the associated wrap-around moisture which has supported several
    hours of wintry precipitation across northern New England. A wintry
    mix has been observed over portions of southern NH into MA for the
    last few hours. However, the departure of the surface low supports
    surface-700 mb cold-air advection across New England, as suggested
    by the 18Z mesoanalysis. As such, a transition to mainly moderate
    snow is expected across southern NH into MA through the afternoon.

    Farther north, a saturated dendritic growth zone remains in place
    across southern parts of ME. While decreasing deep-layer ascent with
    the departing surface low suggests that the snow event in this area
    may have passed peak intensity, at least a few more hours of
    moderate to occasionally snow remains possible, and an instance or
    two of 1+ inch/hr snowfall rates cannot be ruled out through at
    least 22Z.
