The NWS is updating the radar in Gray Maine https://www.weather.gov/media/gyx/PNS/SLEP.pdf startign Friday
My experience is the "overlapping" coverage from three surrounding stations in the whites is significantly impacted by the mountainous terrain. Frequently I will check the Burlington VT radar during stormy weather and it will look like rain will be hitting VT hard while tapering off in NH, when I look at the gray radar I see large storms especially from the SW that are barely apparent on the Burlington site that are heading into NH.
In general I expect the quality of rainy and possible thunderstorm weather forecasts in the whites this weekend may not be a good as usual.
