That's good. We could use the moisture. Looking at the NH DES site, the lake level is down 1 Standard Deviation from normal. That means the lake doesn't get this low at this time of year but once every 7 years or so.

There is snow in the snow pack that has yet to melt. Part of the reason for the lower lake level is probably the abnormally cold air we've had. That causes two things:

1) Cold air is usually dry air, having come from Northern Canada where there is no moisture source, and dry air causes evaporation;

2) Not as much melting as we usually get. New England winters are cold, but have their mood swings. It doesn't normally stay cold like it has been doing this winter. Only in the last week or so, have we seen a midwinter melt.

Winter storm warning is now in effect for the entire state except Rockingham County (coast.) Another 8 to 10 inches for the lake (maybe a foot). The mountains will get more than a foot from this.
