Oh joy, this sounds like fun!

The National Weather Service in Taunton has issued an Ice Storm
Warning... which is in effect until 7 am EST Friday. The Winter Storm
Warning has been replaced by the more defined Ice Storm Warning.

The warning covers all of Cheshire and Hillsborough counties with
major impact likely in the Monadnocks.

Freezing rain will fall heavily at times with glazing easing at dawn
as temperatures rise to around freezing.

Heavy accumulations of glaze will probably cause power outages by
midnight tonight with areas of 1 inch thick ice on trees and wires...
especially the east facing slopes of the Berkshires.

Sleet may briefly be mixed with the freezing rain this evening.

Untreated roads and walkways are already becoming icy. If traveling
you should allow plenty of extra time to reach your destination.

This is a potentially dangerous situation with long duration
power outages possible... especially the Monadnock region.

An Ice Storm Warning is issued for ice accretion of one half inch
or greater. Travel will be extremely difficult. Ice accretion
could result in downed tree limbs and power lines. If your power
GOES out... do not use candles. Have batteries and flashlights on
hand. If you must travel... keep an extra flashlight... food... and
water in your vehicle in case of an emergency.
