Sunday’s Weather

Today some sunshine will allow for temperatures to warm into the mid-80s with cooler readings in the mid-70s along the coast. Some strong thunderstorms in spots will produce torrential rainfall and slow storm motion will also heighten the concern for isolated flooding as storms may sit over a given area for an extended period.

What’s on Deck

Shower and thunderstorm chances all next week with locally heavy rain possible in any storms that develop. This will bring an increased potential for flash flooding in isolated locations, particularly in Northern New Hampshire.
