MONTPELIER, Vt. — Emergency management officials in New Hampshire and Vermont are warning that snow, sleet and freezing rain could make for a rough morning commute and possible power outages.
Officials say the forecast is for an overnight storm that could drop 4 to 6 inches of snow in parts of Maine and 2 to 5 inches in New Hampshire and eastern Vermont mixed with sleet and possible freezing rain by early Friday. Parts of Vermont could get up to half an inch of ice on top of the snow.
Officials say the ice could cause branches to fall onto power lines, knocking out service.
Drivers are urged to slow down and leave extra room between vehicles.
The storm is expected to move out by Friday night.
Leave extra room so someone can cut you off while they are speeding to keep their tires from getting wet.
And if you have 4WD, remember that you can go twice as fast.
Correct because even when two wheels are off the ground you have traction!
SNOW DAY!
Dateline: Vermont: Maine drivers are urged to slow down and leave extra room between vehicles.
