Power Outage in New London, NH

Low pressure developed off the coast of the Carolinas early on the 13th. The low deepened rapidly overnight into the morning of the 14th. The storm became occluded off of Cape Cod and retrograded into the Gulf of Maine, where it stalled through the morning of the 15th. Given the later season nature of the storm, precipitation type was highly dependent on elevation and time of day. Snow began earlier for higher elevations, and it took until late afternoon and early evening for lower elevations to change to accumulating snowfall. Heavy, wet accumulations and gusty winds led to widespread power outages south of the White Mountains, with the Monadnock Region being hit the hardest. Power outages peaked around 80K, with the majority of outages across southwest, New Hampshire. After the storm occluded the precipitation intensity came down quickly and remained off and on snow showers into the 15th.

On December 16th low pressure develop near Chesapeake Bay and slowly moved northeastward along the coast to a position near Nantucket late in the day. Eventually low pressure moved into the Gulf of Maine on December 17th and continued towards Nova Scotia. Despite a climatologically favorable track for significant snowfall, the antecedent near surface air mass was marginal for snow south of the mountains. Temperatures aloft were cool and supportive of snow, but rain mixed in south of the foothills. There was a significant upslope and elevation component to snowfall totals when precipitation finally came to an end on the 17th. Due to the heavy wet snow, significant power outages occurred across parts of New Hampshire with 50,000 outages reported.

Tropical Storm Isaias was the first tropical storm to impact New Hampshire since 2011. The center of the storm tracked west of the state, keeping the flooding rain associated with the storm across New York. The primary impacts the storm brought to New Hampshire were gusty winds with widespread reports of wind gusts in the mid to upper 40s. Numerous trees and branches were brought down with scattered power outages across the state. An area of enhanced damage was concentrated in Carroll County as a squall line pushed through the region. Concentrated tree damage toppled 100s of trees with one fatality being reported as a large crashed into the home. Overall storm impacts were brief with a period of gusty winds from the south to southeast on the evening of August 4th causing most of the damage. There was no coastal flooding reported as the relatively minor storm surge of around a foot coincided at the time of low tide on the New Hampshire coast.
