[00:00:04]LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT OUR U LOCAL HOT SHOT.

[00:00:07]NOW LOOK AT THESE CLOUDS OVER KINGSTON THIS MORNING.

[00:00:10]PRETTY COOL.

[00:00:11]THEY’RE KIND OF LOOKING LIKE WAVES ROLLING ONTO THE SHORE.

[00:00:14]YOU CAN SHARE YOUR SHOTS OF LIFE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE BY JOINING THE U LOCAL GROUP ON THE WMUR FACEBOOK PAGE.

[00:00:20]ALWAYS LOVE A COOL PICTURE OF CLOUDS.

[00:00:22]YES.

[00:00:22]AND THESE ONES TELLING US THAT THE BAD WEATHER IS GOING AWAY, AT LEAST FOR NOW.

[00:00:28]AND WE’VE GOT MORE SUNSHINE, BUT THE HEAT IS RAMPING UP.

[00:00:31]TOMORROW WILL LIKELY BE THE HOTTEST DAY WE’VE HAD SO FAR THIS SEASON, AND THE HUMIDITY BEGINS TO GO UP TO THE WORST OF THE HUMIDITY ACTUALLY WILL COME ON WEDNESDAY, AND THAT COULD FUEL ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS.

[00:00:43]OUR FIRST THREAT FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND THEN WEDNESDAY THERE’S A CHANCE OF STORMS.

[00:00:48]THEN OF COURSE, FOLLOWING ALL OF THAT WILL BE SOME COOLER AIR.

[00:00:52]BEAUTIFUL SUNSET HAPPENING NOW IN CENTER HARBOR WITH CLEAR SKIES.

[00:00:55]ALL THAT LOOKS PRETTY TOO.

[00:00:57]IN MANCHESTER, 73 DEGREES.

[00:00:59]THE EAST WIND HAS REALLY BEEN DICTATING THE TEMPERATURES.

[00:01:02]DEPENDING ON YOUR LOCATION TODAY, THOSE OF YOU OUT AT THE SEA COAST, IT’S BEEN SIGNIFICANTLY COOLER.

[00:01:08]50 DEGREES IN PORTSMOUTH NOW AND THEN.

[00:01:10]THE GREATER THE DISTANCE BETWEEN YOU AND THE OCEAN, THE WARMER AIR TEMPERATURES WERE TODAY UP TO 83 IN LEBANON.

[00:01:17]WE WERE ALSO IN THE 80S OUT BY KEENE.

[00:01:19]THE SUMMER WARMTH IS NOT FAR AWAY.

[00:01:21]YOU CAN SEE THE 90S DOWN THROUGH WASHINGTON, D.C. EVEN BUFFALO EARLIER TODAY GOT CLOSE TO 90.

[00:01:26]THAT’S ALL COMING THIS WAY.

[00:01:28]AND TOMORROW, IF WE ACTUALLY HIT 90 DEGREES IN CONCORD, IT WOULD BE ON SOMEWHAT THE SLIGHTER EARLIER SIDE.

[00:01:34]THE AVERAGE FIRST TIME THAT WE HIT 90 DEGREES IS TYPICALLY JUNE 3RD.

[00:01:38]SO IT’D PROBABLY BE A COUPLE OF WEEKS BEFORE THAT.

[00:01:42]THE EARLIEST EVER WAS ON APRIL 8TH IN 1871.

[00:01:45]AND LAST YEAR WE HIT 90 DEGREES FOR THE FIRST TIME ON JUNE 5TH.

[00:01:50]TONIGHT, A MILD NIGHT, MOST OF US GOING DOWN INTO THE 50S, MAYBE EVEN STAYING IN THE 60S IN PLACES LIKE MANCHESTER, NASHUA, KEENE AND LEBANON.

[00:01:58]AND THEN TOMORROW IT’S A SCORCHING HEAT TYPE OF DAY.

[00:02:01]WE’RE IN THE LOW 90S, FROM CONCORD TO LEBANON TO ROCHESTER ON SOUTH.

[00:02:05]WARMEST SPOT.

[00:02:06]MIGHT ACTUALLY BE NASHUA GOING INTO THE MID 90S AND THE HUMIDITY CREEPS UP ALONG WITH IT TOO THIS EVENING.

[00:02:13]NOTHING IN TERMS OF HUMIDITY.

[00:02:14]TOMORROW YOU NOTICE MAYBE JUST A LITTLE BIT OF A MUGGY FEEL AND THEN IT’S ALL OUT HUMID, STICKY, AND YOU JUST FEEL THE MOISTURE IN THE AIR ON WEDNESDAY.

[00:02:22]BUT THEN WE’RE BACK TO THE DRIER AIR BY THURSDAY.

[00:02:24]NOTHING.

[00:02:25]SATELLITE AND RADAR.

[00:02:26]RIGHT NOW IT’S QUIET, BUT THERE ARE SOME NASTY STORMS OUT THROUGH THE MIDDLE PART OF THE COUNTRY.

[00:02:32]TORNADO WARNINGS BACK INTO IOWA, SOUTH OF OMAHA, AND THUNDERSTORMS, TOO, THAT EVENTUALLY GET CLOSER TO US IN THE COMING DAYS.

[00:02:39]TONIGHT WE’LL HAVE CLEAR SKIES.

[00:02:41]IT WILL BE RELATIVELY MILD TEMPERATURES TO WAKE UP TO TOMORROW MORNING WITH THE SUNSHINE LATER IN THE DAY, THERE’S A CHANCE OF SOME PASSING DOWNPOURS OR EVEN SOME THUNDERSTORMS.

[00:02:50]IT LOOKS LIKE MAINLY IN THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE STATE.

[00:02:53]THIS IS ABOUT 6 P.M. TOMORROW NIGHT AND IT LOOKS LIKE FROM THE LAKES REGION NORTH MAY HAVE THE GREATEST RISK OF SEEING STRONG, MAYBE EVEN SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS, WITH THE MAIN THREAT BEING DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.

[00:03:04]BUT EVERYWHERE ACROSS THE STATE TOMORROW WE COULD SEE A FEW ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS, DAMAGING WINDS, SMALL HAIL, HEAVY RAINFALL, FREQUENT LIGHTNING ON THE TABLE WITH THESE STORMS POTENTIALLY, AND THEN AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY, THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY PASSES THROUGH AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE THE MAIN RISK AREA FOR SEVERE STORMS WOULD BE IN SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE IN THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

[00:03:25]AGAIN, DAMAGING WINDS, SMALL HAIL, A POSSIBILITY ON WEDNESDAY.

[00:03:29]THEN FOLLOWING BEHIND THESE STORMS, IT TURNS COOLER.

[00:03:32]OR AT LEAST MAYBE SEASONABLE,
