Rain, Sleet, And Snow On Friday And Saturday: Weekend Weather, Events

CONCORD, NH — Weather forecasters are warning of rain, sleet, and rain for the first part of the weekend and breezy and chilly temperatures in the latter half.

On Thursday afternoon, the National Weather Service issued a “hazardous weather outlook” warning of mixed winter weather and a flood warning, too, for some parts of the state.

“A period of heavy rain may bring urban and poor drainage flooding Saturday along with a period of gusty winds,” the alert stated. “The rain will likely start as snow, with up to a few inches possible in the north.”

A flood warning remains in effect for the Suncook River in North Chichester as well as rivers and waterways in Belknap and Merrimack counties. Motorists, too, forecasters said, should not enter into flooded roads or drive around barricades.

“Most flood deaths occur in vehicles,” an alert stated.

Friday will start out nice and mild — highs in the upper 30s to lower 40s before rain moves in to the area in the evening and early Saturday. Wind gusts could reach 35 mph.

Rain is expected Saturday morning while temperatures reach the lower 50s. Wind gusts could be as high as 40 mph.

The sun returns on Sunday and Monday will be sunny, too.

However, snow may return on Tuesday.
