Get Ready for a Chilly Week in NH

Frosty temperatures, rain expected in the Granite State this week.

There could be some brushfire relief in sight for New Hampshire, which has been under a Red Flag warning for most of the past few days, according to forecasters who are predicting cooler temperatures as well as rain during the early part of next week. The amount of rain that falls, however, may not be that significant, according to AccuWeather.com.

Whatever rain the Granite State does get will be gone by Wednesday and then, the mild daytime temperatures return, according to forecasters. Expect frosty temps at night this week with temperatures in the 30s. On Wednesday night, some areas will drop down into the 20s, according to meteorologists. 

This weekend though, expect a bit of a warm up, as the mild, Pacific air moves into the region.
