Father’s Day Weekend Forecast: Nearly Perfect

Expect sunny skies, summer temperatures, and maybe a light breeze here or there in Amherst

AMHERST, NH – It’s Father’s Day weekend and if you’re looking to do something outdoors with dad, you’ve lucked out: It’s going to be a near perfect weekend throughout New Hampshire, according to weather forecasters.

Sunday appears to be the slightly better day – but with mostly sunny skies and temperatures in the upper 70s to low 80s, either day is expected to be a winner. AccuWeather.com is also picking Sunday as the better of the two days, too. If you’re heading to the beaches, beware of a low pressure system off the coast that may bring a slightly higher than normal surf, although it doesn’t appear to be a huge concern at this point.
