region. moderate drought for conway into lebanon and then lesser problems with drought, in fact not technically in a drought when you get into the white mountains and points to the north. the extreme area in the southeastern part of the state, still encompassing manchester, nashua and portsmouth and to give you an idea of how we're doing so far, since january 1, we're talking about the whole calendar year, in manchester we've received 17.89-inches of rainfall. on average we're more closer 32 inches by this time of year. so we're down about 14 inches, but that is improved after last week, we were actually down about 16 inches, so the rain that we've gotten so far the past couple of days has helped. and the same is true in concord, although a little less of a deficit. it continues to be dry, there is some rain in the forecast and for more on this let's go over to mike haddad. mike: a vez ant day today. but we -- a pleasant day today, but we are

we'll start to see the fair skies that are out there right now giving way to a thicker cloud cover and eventually some showers and also cooler temperatures. right now winds are out of the northeast, it's keeping it on the cool side, despite a fair amount of sunshine statewide. upper first at the coast, 60's elsewhere. running about four or five degrees below the average for this time of year. but at the tail end of september you expect it to be on the cool side, downright cold tonight in the great north woods. down near freezing, a little frost up in parts of coos county. 40's elshe shore. for now it is seasonably cool to mild, but starting on saturday with the thicker cloud cover, and a better chance of some showers, it will be even cooler with that northeast wind, highs only in the 50's to kick off the weekend on saturday. you are notice for the time being the showers staying put off to our west with a big upper level storm stuck in place, and plenty of shower activity through the mid atlantic region up towards the southern parts of new york state. eventually such those showers

southern parts of the state, but up until that point, high and dry across new hampshire, low cloudiness, patchy fog possible in spots. that will give way to partial sun. clouds take over later in the day. here's a slight chance of shower creeping into southern new hampshire. a better shot of showers, even steadier rain not out of the question friday night into the day on saturday, and again with the clouds and the rain we're talking about highs only in the 50's to kick off the weekend, slightly milder, couple of on sunday. highs tomorrow upper 50's coast, lower 60's south. and an update on the tropics, a storm that we do have to track closely over the next several days, this is now hurricane matthew, win wheeling its way south of puerto rico and ready to pass south of hispaniola. after that the track becomes very interesting as it works with an area of low pressure building in from the west to help steer it up to the north, right over eastern parts of

for a long period of time, it will likely reemerge towards the bahamas, as a hurricane, and then we have to watch along the east coast, mid and part of next week. so right now we're watching showers, they'll be in here tomorrow night into the day on saturday. a couple of left over scattered showers on sunday, could be a shower or two early next week and then dry for wednesday, and a good part of thursday. beyond that we have matthew where the storm is tracking because a lot of computer models continue to drive it farther north than where you saw it in five days, that would take it possibly somewhere along the east coast. jean: we'll be watching, thanks, mike. the flu has arrived in new hampshire. up next what state officials want you to know this season. tom: and another farm stand targeted, at 5:30 what this
