as for temperatures right now, they are starting to drop of course, the sundown at 4:30 this afternoon and temperatures already responding to the lack of sun. we're back into the 30's to very low 40's in many spots, from the merrimack valley and coast back into the monadnock region, many spots below 40. same story around the lake sunapee zone. upper 30's to lower to mid 40's. if you're along the lake shore you are quite mild, due to the fact that the water temperatures are chilly but not nearly as cold as they will get in the part of the great north woods and northern parts of the white mountains, although franconia notch at 44. overnight tonight we do drop below freezing everywhere except right at the coast, may hang right around 31 or 32 by 6:00 in the morning. then we're looking at a nice recovery in temperatures quickly in the afternoon. why will that happen? a storm well off shore not working back in towards new hampshire. high pressure nosing in means clear sailing for tonight and

marches on in for mid-week. in terms of shower chances, give it about 80% shot. but that will just be in the form of a scattering of showers for wednesday and early wednesday evening. and then once all of this moves on through, notice the dry real estate back to the west, that takes over for the rest of this week, thursday and on into friday. right now it's clear, it will stay that way through a good part of the night, be frost everywhere tomorrow morning as we drop at or below freezing. sunny skies for election day low 60's. on wednesday, that's when the front moves on in with scattered showers. notice future cast, not painting a big wet scenario here in new hampshire, just a scattering of showers, and just cold enough by late day for a few flakes to mix in across the white mountains. highs tomorrow, up into the upper 50's to lower 60's. average high this time of year is 52 degrees. we'll be much closer to the average as we go through the rest of this week.

showers back to around 50 in many spots. by thursday more sun. it will be quite breezy, lower 50's, lower to mid 40's north, breezy on friday for veterans day and looks like temperatures begin to tumble late day and especially into saturday when there will be some snow showers in the mountains and maybe a passing flurry in southern new hampshire. but no big first snow just yet. just yet. in southern new hampshire. josh: no excuses weather wise for not voting nut last week, now the sunapee fire department is helping herself bright the cubs' world series win. jennifer: hazel nelson, who is 108, was alive the last time the cubs won, but now she's enjoying it all over again, she was born and raisedded in the windy city and has been a cubs fan as long as she can remember of since nelson couldn't go to chicago to see the parade, the sunapee department let her join them as they led the victory parade for the high school girls soccer

championship. what a ride. josh: yes. so we wrap up our final pitches next with our republican candidate for governor, chris sununu. jennifer: and president obama hits the campaign trail for hillary clinton, his message for granite state voters just hours

when all three of these guys show up, they come up with some crazy ideas. sometimes, i just have to say, "no way." so i appreciate it when annie kuster says "no" she stood up to both parties to protect our benefits. annie's working to make sure we have a secure retirement. so i can worry about these guys instead. thanks, annie. i'm annie kuster and i approve this message. kate: my mom and i love shooting hoops. but you know what - she could still learn a few things from me - just like i've learned a lot from her. mom helps with homework... she helped dad start his business...

now, mom helps make laws that help people - especially when they need it most. i'm really proud of her. and she's taught me that with hard work - i can do... anything. kelly: i'm kelly ayotte, kate: and i'm kate.

josh: now for our final pitch degrees the candidates. jennifer: here is republican candidate for governor, chris sununu. >> i'm chris sununu. as this election winds down we have to ask ourselves what kind of state do we want new hampshire to be? are we going to be like washington d.c., go down the path of personal attacks and partisan politics? or are we ready to make a change? i'm going to bring my experience as an environmental engineer and we're providing the best possible solutions for the work force and the families of new hampshire. look at your energy business, the health insurance bills, the costs are going through the roof. our great state is almost become unaffordable. i'm going to bring change by assuring that our governor, the next governor, is a stake holder and understands how policy impacts people's lives. we have a clear choice in election, we can keep going down the path of big washington programs that don't have our

governor that understands and believes that new hampshire people do it new hampshire's way, we do it better than everybody else. i hope to have your support on tuesday. let's make the change. josh: chris sununu. and turns out you can even vote in tomorrow's election if you're in space. jennifer: the federal voting assistance program showed this photo on twitter today, good news, astronaut shane, not only can astronauts vote from space, they can claim that i voted from space on their sticker right josh: no, i don't. thank you for joining us. when you're raised by a single mom, you learn how important it is to live within your means. i'm colin van ostern, and i took that lesson to my work in business, and it's how i'll stand up for you as governor. by cutting inefficient spending and using innovation to save tax dollars, we'll make new investments without a sales or income tax. to create clean energy jobs, protect affordable health care,

governor, i'll stand up for you. vo: ending funding for planned parenthood. taking away our right to choose. restricting our health care choices. this is senator kelly ayotte's record. ayotte voted six times to end funding for planned parenthood - putting access to birth control and cancer screenings at risk. and she supports overturning roe v. wade. woman 1: kelly ayotte says she's for women. but it's just an act. woman 2: voters definitely cannot trust kelly ayotte. for the content of this advertising. what's kelly ayotte costing you? you're paying more for prescription medicines. kelly ayotte blocked lower cost generic drugs. you're paying high interest rates on college loans. ayotte voted against letting you refinance at lower rates. and you're paying higher bank fees while ayotte voted for special breaks to wall street executives. kelly ayotte. she's siding with corporate special interests and

afoot and light-hearted i take to the open road. healthy, free, the world before me, the long brown path before me leading wherever i choose. the east and the west are mine. the north and the south are mine. all seems beautiful to me. tom: it's down to final hours and the focus on new hampshire continues right now in the race for president, with two last minute rallies. jennifer: the candidates are crisscrossing the state, especially in the tight race for u.s. senate where they're campaigning nonstop. mike: the weather looks

temperatures. how much warmer it gets, and when it cools back down. tom: and they are ready for the rush at polling location as cross the state. what voters can expect when they go to cast their ballots. >> no one covers new hampshire like we do. now wmur news 9 at 6:00. tom: at 6:00 with so many tight races, it is an election whereverry vote matters, from the race to president right down the ee hampshire. good evening, i'm tom griffith. jennifer: i'm jennifer vaughn. the presidential candidates under the middle of a grueling final day, and the campaigns are focusing on the grat r granite state. president obama just wrapped up a rally, and donald trump is holding a rally tonight in manchester. we begin with jennifer crompton in durham. reporter: this has been a true blue get out the vote pep rally,

nearly 8,000 here inside the whittemore center on the durham campus of u.n.h. and even before the president arrived his crowd was fired up by the likes of ken burns, congresswoman giffords and every democrat at the top of the new hampshire ticket, well almost. but the true star was president obama and his upbeat message that we are stronger together. now, comparisons are drawn between hillary clinton and donald trump, between inclusion and divisiveness, and when president obama said he can hear your boos, but he can hear your vote. >> all that progress goes down the drain if we don't win tomorrow. and new hampshire, you know, it's a small state, but it's an important state. [cheers and applause] there are some scenarios where hillary doesn't win if she doesn't win new hampshire.
