These late day thunderstorms produced damaging winds, frequent lightning, and even hail. Most of the reported damage was from strong winds toppling trees. Overnight, showers and scattered thunderstorms continued to rumble across northern New Hampshire and the western Maine mountains. 4 am temperatures ranged from the upper 60s over western New Hampshire to the mid 50s along the mid coast of Maine. For today, a cold front will drop slowly south across the region. We'll see a mix of clouds and sun that will help boost temperatures into the 70s and lower 80s. However, along the mid coast of Maine a chilly onshore wind should limit temperatures to the 60s. The advancing front and warm muggy air will allow widespread showers and thunderstorms to develop by afternoon. Some of the thunderstorms will produce locally heavy rain, frequent lightning, strong gusty winds, and possibly hail. So if you plan to venture out today, keep an eye to the sky and be prepared to move to safe shelter if a thunderstorm approaches. Tonight showers and storms should wind down from north to south as the front slides to the south of the area. On Friday, the front will stall just to our south. While clouds and a few showers will linger over southern sections, it should dry out over northern New Hampshire and central Maine where the sun may even put in a brief appearance. Low pressure will take shape along the mid Atlantic coast Friday night, then track northeast along the stalled front. Showers will gradually spread back north across the entire region Friday night then persist for much of Saturday. The heaviest and steadiest rain should fall over southern New Hampshire and along the Maine coast. Amounts should drop off considerably as one heads north and west away from the coast. Unfortunately, the low will slow as it reaches the Gulf of Maine Saturday night then meander along the downeast coast through Sunday. The result will be lingering clouds and a few showers for the balance of the upcoming weekend. === The weather observed at WHITEFIELD, NH at 08:52 AM EDT was: === The weather reported was haze.
