Another hazard tonight into Sat will be strong easterly wind gusts and potential power outages. Along the coast and inland to the I-93 corridor winds may gust up to 50 mph. If you have outdoor celebrations planned this weekend, now is the time to make sure equipment is secured.

Snow begins this evening and may be briefly heavy overnight with rates near 1 inch per hour. Expect it to taper off early tomorrow AM for most areas, with some light snow and flurries continuing into the day for central Maine. Plan some extra time for your commutes! #MEwx #NHwx

Temperatures will come crashing down behind today's storm making any untreated damp surfaces very icy. Use caution when traveling this evening. We also urge anyone traveling this afternoon to use caution as winds are likely to bring down trees and powerlines. #MEwx #NHwx

Southeasterly swell from Hurricane Erin will impact the Gulf of Maine starting later today and lingering into the weekend. This will lead into an extended period of high rip current risk and high surf as early as Wednesday and lasting at least through Saturday. #MEwx #NHwx

Severe weather watches mean that the 'ingredients' to make the weather possible but not a guarantee -- this gives us time to prepare. Severe weather warnings mean that the serve weather already exists and is imminent or near your location. #LNEMA #HurricanePreparednessWeek
