As mentioned last evening, showers and thunderstorms will enter the region during the mid to late afternoon hours in New Hampshire before spreading east. A few of the storms could produce damaging winds and hail. An isolated tornado is possible. Isolated power outages are also possible.
SKYWARN Amateur Radio ops will begin this afternoon on the DMR SKYWARN Talk Group to capture reports from New Hampshire, and will move to the W1QUI 147.090 (+ /100 Hz) and KQ1L 146.880 (- / 100 Hz) repeaters later in the afternoon / evening as the severe weather progresses eastward. Please activate local and county level SKYWARN nets as needed.
