.DISCUSSION...
A few showers or thunderstorms develop this evening,
focused on southern NH into the interior NH/ME Lakes Region.
These will have the potential to contain heavy rain, but
may be isolated. Isolated showers with patchy fog continue
overnight, with showers becoming more likely by Monday
afternoon. Widespread wetting rains continue into Monday
night. This precipitation may be locally heavy, mainly in
the mountains under breezy southerly winds. Unsettled
conditions remain into mid week as broad low pressure
slowly tracks east. The next period of dry conditions do not
appear likely until late week/next weekend.
