Manchester, NH – Another surge of dangerous heat is headed for southern New Hampshire, with highs soaring back into the 90s by Sunday and lasting into early next week. Drivers, outdoor workers, and anyone without air conditioning should brace for sweltering afternoons and little overnight relief.
According to the National Weather Service, Manchester will see mostly sunny skies Friday and Saturday, with highs in the mid-80s before the mercury climbs to near 90°F by Sunday. Monday and Tuesday are likely to be the hottest stretch, with daytime temperatures reaching 93°F and nighttime lows stuck in the upper 60s. Southeast and south winds remain light, so heat will build quickly across neighborhoods from Hooksett to Goffstown and along I-293.
The rising humidity and back-to-back hot days could lead to dangerous heat indices, especially for anyone outdoors or in older buildings. Residents are urged to limit strenuous activities to early mornings or evenings, drink plenty of water, and check on neighbors without reliable cooling. Local pools, libraries, and shopping centers offer safer, air-conditioned spaces. Parents should pay extra attention during back-to-school events, sports, or weekend plans as the hottest weather peaks Sunday through Tuesday.
This stretch of extreme heat may linger through midweek, with only gradual cooling by Wednesday. Stay tuned for updates, and be prepared for possible advisories or warnings if the heat risk escalates.
