New Hampshire – The cold bites hard this morning as temperatures sit at 7 degrees under a pale sky in Manchester. Breath hangs in the air. Side streets remain dry for now, but the deep freeze sets the stage for slick travel once snow begins later today.
According to the National Weather Service, snow develops mainly after 3 p.m. with a 90% chance of precipitation. Highs reach 34 degrees as winds turn light from the south. Even a quick coating could turn I-93, Route 101, and local bridges slippery before sunset. Plan extra time if traveling late today.
Snow continues into the evening, then mixes with sleet and pockets of freezing rain after midnight. A light glaze is possible before temperatures dip toward 25 degrees. That thin ice layer can create flash-freeze conditions on untreated pavement by early Wednesday morning.
Sunshine returns Wednesday with a sharp rebound to 52 degrees. Melting begins quickly. By Thursday, highs settle near 47 under mostly sunny skies. Another round of mixed precipitation is possible late Thursday night into Friday, with highs near 37 and a wintry mix likely.
Clocks spring ahead at 2 a.m. Sunday, March 8. Longer daylight arrives just as March temperatures trend milder. The 6–10 day outlook signals above-normal readings, with highs pushing into the 50s and even near 60 by early next week.
Five Day Outlook for Manchester, NH:
Today: Snow after 3 PM, high 34.
Wednesday: Sunny, high 52.
