‘Dangerous Heat’ Possibly Heading To New Hampshire This Week, Weather Forecasters Say

CONCORD, NH — Forecasters said Granite Staters can expect some very nice weather this week while also warning of “dangerous heat” just before and during the weekend.

A “hazardous weather outlook” alert was issued Monday morning calling for very high temperatures on Thursday and Friday, with “heat indices into at least the mid-to-upper-90s are increasingly likely.” More specific weather information is expected later this week.

It will be slightly warmer on Wednesday, with highs in the mid-80s during the day and sunny skies, accompanied by lows in the lower 60s during the evening.

On Thursday, it will be slightly warmer than Wednesday — sunny and hot with highs in the lower 90s. Overnight lows will be in the lower 70s.

Showers and thunderstorms are expected on Friday with highs in the mid-90s. More rain and t-storms are expected during the evening and overnight hours.
