mike: beat start off with our live web cam network, the sun getting lower and lower. you notice a few high clouds around, same story out at the coast with a few low clouds mixed in as well. a pleasant evening out there at strawbery banke. a few clouds building in from the south and west, but no precipitation as a major storm moves out to see and of course that is hurricane joaquin. what impact does it have in new hampshire in terms of rain, none. but here's josh with more. josh: we are not seeing a direct hit of any kind, it's pretty far out to sea. however, we do have, if you can see here, a small craft advisory in effect through tonight, tomorrow and into wednesday morning, because of those choppy seas that are being created, as

well as the small craft advisory. we have i high surf advisory. the surf, the winds, the waves rather, about four to eight-foot waves, and strong rip current are definitely a possibility. so certainly the sea will look angry over the next couple of days as the storm passes near by. here's how close it's going to be. it's still a distance away. we can show you the track projected and take our measuring tool and show you that at its peak during the overnight hours, still about 550 to 600 miles away during the nighttime hours tonight into tomorrow, and the track, by the way, if you're curious, continues into a tropical low. but actually france could be in the line of this storm, but it will be significantly weakened by then. back home around here, the temperatures have been cooler, but we're warming back up. mike: that's right.

over the next couple days. amazing to see that storm a few hundred miles off shore with no impact except for the surf, which is great news around all of new england. the temperatures on the back side of that system are seasonably cool, but we've got warmer air on the way starting as early as tomorrow afternoon. it chilly tonight, but not as cold as last night. low to mid 30's great north woods, upper 30's and lower 40's elsewhere. but tomorrow and wednesday this little wedge of some spring-like warmth will begin to move on in here, we're not talking about record heat by any stretch. but at least warmer than it has been. again, for two days. once we get to wednesday afternoon, a few sprinkles may develop up north and behind that weak front will be more seasonably cool air, just like we had today, as we go into thursday and friday. speaking of which, friday offers the best shot of a few showers statewide. but none out there for tonight, clear skies will develop, clouds will melt away. plenty of sun tomorrow with a few patchy clouds, temperatures topping off nicely into the 60's to around 70.

once we get into wednesday that's when the next weak front sprinkles up north. outside of that it will be bright and warmer than it will be out there for tomorrow. here's a look at sky cast over manchester, again some patchy cloud for tonight. they'll tend to melt away by early tomorrow morning with a nice looking sunrise, and temperatures beginning to climb from the 40's into the 60's, a few spots may jump near 70. for tomorrow we'll top off in the mid 60's up north, mid to upper 60's lakes region through the merrimack valley. cooler during the afternoon at the coast. and places like nashua and manchester will likely hit right around an even 70. for tonight clear to partly cloudy, patchy fog develops later on, low to mid 30's up north. upper 30's to around 40 in a good part of central new hampshire. and about 40 to 45 south. winds fairly light. nice looking stretch for tuesday and wednesday, temperatures

climbing above the average, then we dip back closer to why we were today, maybe a couple notches above that, best shot of showers friday, timing is great here because by saturday and sunday we're behind that front and it's much dryer, and temperatures seasonably cool by day and a little chilly by night and then maybe a bit warmer by the beginning of next week. all in all nice and quiet again. one shot of showers on friday, dry otherwise. tom: there you go. sox head home and here comes hockey. >> yes, red sox are cleaning house today. the locker room, all their stuff
