Today near in the 40s to low 50s, thats why you notice such a big change out there today. And that will, looks like, stay that way right through the night tonight. Kind of bombing out in the 40s and lower 50s, which means it doesnt allow the temperatures to get too chilly tonight, but certainly on the cool side. For tomorrow the dew points come back only a little bit. So another dry day for tomorrow, but another warm day the first day of autumn tomorrow, and of course it will still feel like summer, how about that. Weve had high thin clouds in southern New Hampshire, thin enough to allow the sun through and dimming it a bit. A front will be righting on friday, it does bring some rain chances, its our only rain chance and its not a lot. For tomorrow, warm weather, but look whats waiting in the wings these temperatures are headed in this direction, so it will be a big difference in temperatures over the weekend and into next week. Its going to be very noticeable as we shift to a falllike feel. Temperatures tonight will be on the cool and comfortable side with plenty of clear skies, a few clouds rolling through overnight and through the day tomorrow. Then heres friday, with that front, especially in northern New Hampshire in the morning, youve got a good chance of downpours and thunderstorms, and as that front moves notice how future cast tries to dry it out. I think theres a 50 chance in southern New Hampshire of passing showers, but certainly not a lot. Look at the clearing that rolls in for saturday, the weekend, get ready for this, a big difference. So tomorrow another warm day, summerlike feel. Friday scattered showers, clouds, and cooler in the 70s, and then look at this.
