2017-02-15 to 2017-02-16 · Northern Grafton, New Hampshire

Wider weather episode

An area of low pressure dropping southeast from Canada on the morning of the 15th combined with an area of low pressure moving northeast from the mid-Atlantic coast to form an intense storm over Nova Scotia by the morning of the 16th. A weak low pressure trough remained across the area on the 16th as the low moved away. The combination of these two storms and the trough brought heavy snow to much of New Hampshire. Snowfall amounts ranged from an inch or so in southwestern New Hampshire to about 12 inches along the State's eastern border with Maine.
