New Hampshire's Afternoon Outlook: Sunshine, Showers, and What to Expect!

Good afternoon, New Hampshire! As we move through this beautiful Thursday, September 21st, our local weather experts at WMUR are bringing you the latest updates to help you plan the rest of your day. We're seeing a mix of conditions across the Granite State, promising a bit of everything as we head towards the evening hours.

For many, the afternoon is shaping up to be quite pleasant, with patches of sunshine breaking through the clouds.

Temperatures are generally comfortable, hovering in the pleasant mid-60s to low-70s, making it ideal for those afternoon errands or a leisurely stroll. However, don't put away that umbrella just yet! There's a chance of scattered showers making an appearance, particularly in western and northern regions of the state.

These will mostly be light, passing showers, but they could briefly dampen your plans.

Our meteorologists are closely monitoring a system that could bring a few more persistent rainbands to localized areas. The good news is that widespread heavy downpours are not anticipated for this afternoon.

Winds will remain relatively light, generally out of the southwest, contributing to the mild feel in the air. Visibility will be mostly good, though it might dip slightly in areas experiencing those brief rain showers.

Looking ahead, this varied pattern is expected to continue into the early evening, before gradually clearing up for most overnight.

We encourage everyone to stay tuned to WMUR for the most up-to-date information, especially if your afternoon activities take you outdoors. Be prepared for those quick changes, and make the most of the milder temperatures before the next shift in our New England weather. Have a wonderful afternoon, New Hampshire!
