It’s gone. It’s gonna be okay. 

I have 4” on the ground, I’m not worried about retaining any of it, my question was will the dynamics be different with this storm considering the cold in place down vs the previous cutters in December.

Absolutely, assuredly no. There is no depth to the cold outside your house. You will be above freezing a few hours after sunrise, max.

...WINTER STORM WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 5 PM THIS AFTERNOON TO 7 AM
EST WEDNESDAY...

* WHAT...Heavy snow and mixed precipitation expected. Total snow and
  sleet accumulations between 5 and 17 inches, with highest totals
  occuring at higher elevations. Winds gusting as high as 50 mph
  after snow has fallen.

* WHERE...Portions of south central, southwest, and western Maine
  and northern New Hampshire.

* WHEN...From 5 PM this afternoon to 7 AM EST Wednesday.

* IMPACTS...Significant snowfall and periods of heavy snowfall rates
  will combine with low visibility to create very dangerous driving
  conditions. Heavy, wet snow will cause weighted tree limbs of
  conifers and leafed trees, leading to snapped branches. Snow will
  change over to rain, with a period of sleet and/or freezing rain
  at transition which will cause slushy roads and further degrade
  driving conditions. Plan on delaying travel to allow time for road
  conditions to improve. The hazardous conditions will impact the
  Wednesday morning commute.

Winds are expected to become strong and gusty as snow transitions to
rain. The combination of fallen snow clinging to branches and power
lines and increasing winds will likely lead to additional power
outages.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

If you must travel, keep an extra flashlight, food, and water in
your vehicle in case of an emergency. The latest road conditions can
be obtained by going to newengland511.org

Accuweather's wind advisory page is cutting Great Bay in half.  Is the implication that the immediate coast will likely not see higher winds?  Or is this more a matter of you gotta draw a line somewhere?
