From Kurt Grassett, Director of Public Works
03:13 p.m. email: Well the bulk of the rain has passed, we hadd over 1.5 inches of rain at my office. The temperature did not rise as high as they said (surprise huh). We still have ice buildup in the trees in the higher elevations of town.
Later tonight we will drop back below freezing, anyone traveling tonight should be aware that refreezing of the roads may occur at any time. We will also see an increase in the wind. If the ice remains on the trees this could lead to scattered power outages.
Sunny and warmer on Saturday, maybe then the puddles will begin to dry up and the ice will melt, gotta love New England.
Have a good night
Kurt
12:15 p.m. notice: King's Highway is open.
11:08 email: We had a tree come down on King's Highway between Boutwell Road and Landing Road. The road is blocked. PSNH has been notified. We do not have an estimated time yet, but I would guess a few hours anyway.
2:46 a.m. email: We had a little snow and sleet overnight, turning to freezing rain around 10 PM. The temperatures came above 32 degrees around 2 AM. As long as they keep climbing we should be out of the woods for a severe icing event. The trees do have some build up on them but they seem to be handling it fine at this time. We will begin treating all roads around 3:30 or so. Early morning travelers should be prepared for icy/slushy driving conditions for a while, possibly through mid-morning.
I will update in the morning for any long term changes to the forecast.
