Manchester, N.H. – A brief return to rain is expected in southern New Hampshire Monday afternoon, just in time to impact the evening commute.
According to the National Weather Service in Gray, scattered showers are likely after 2 p.m. Monday across Manchester, Nashua, and nearby towns. While rainfall totals will remain under a tenth of an inch, road surfaces may become slick — especially along major routes like I-93, I-293, and NH Route 101.
