Wmur: Snow, wintry mix likely Thursday night, Friday morning in New Hampshire
For families checking wmur school closings, the forecast calls for rapid swings from spring-like warmth to snow, rain and freezing rain across several days, creating narrow windows of potentially hazardous travel at morning drop-off times.
Forecast swings from Tuesday through the weekend
The forecast outlines a fast-changing pattern beginning Tuesday, with upper 30s to lower 40s expected that day (ET) before snow moves in during the afternoon and then changes to rain and freezing rain during the evening and overnight, a sequence laid out in the forecast narrative.
Wmur School Closings: changing precipitation types complicate decisions
Wednesday morning (ET) carries a chance of freezing rain before temperatures warm into the lower 50s later that day, and Thursday morning (ET) is expected to bring more snow and rain that will switch to rain by late morning, followed by rain in the evening that transitions back to a mix of snow and freezing rain; these repeated pivot points are the reason families tracking wmur school closings face uncertainty.
Thursday night into Friday: multiple transition windows to watch
Friday morning (ET) is described as likely to bring more rain, snow and freezing rain, then switching later in the day to rain and freezing rain, and the outlook extends through the weekend with rain and freezing rain expected Friday and Saturday (ET) and temperatures reaching the 50s on Saturday and Sunday — details that highlight how conditions can differ markedly between afternoon commutes and next-morning drop-offs.
What is confirmed and what remains unknown
The forecast narrative confirms the sequence of precipitation types and the temperature swings — snow Tuesday afternoon (ET), a chance of freezing rain Wednesday morning (ET), warming into the lower 50s Wednesday, additional mixed precipitation on Thursday morning (ET), and likely mixed precipitation again Friday morning (ET). What the provided material does not include are district-by-district closure decisions or a timeline for how and when individual schools will announce cancellations or delays.
Local officials and school districts will still need to decide and announce closures based on how these transition periods actually play out, with the forecast emphasizing that freezing rain at multiple points in the week presents a distinctive hazard that can develop quickly and vary by location.
The forecast continues to describe rain and freezing rain Friday and Saturday (ET) and a warming trend into the 50s on Saturday and Sunday, which are the next confirmed weather markers families and schools can use when planning for the coming days.
