Isaias quickly exits New England, lingering strong wind gusts overnight

Tropical storm brought severe weather to New Hampshire

good evening. I'm meteorologist Haley Lapointe. Here's an update on Tropical Storm E se is is it continues to move across New England. Very fast mover, though. It'll be gone probably out of here for most people by midnight. But in as it's moving through, we're seeing some very strong wing us. In fact, a few areas could be gusting upwards of 50 MPH through the evening and into the overnight hours. Still a small threat for tornado. We have a tornado watch that continues until nine PM for the southern part of the state. So I think the threat of this is really going down, as some of the bands have lifted from the south to the north, where we've had some of the strongest thunderstorm action. A tropical storm warning continues for the state until further notice. That's mainly due to the strong winds Manchester now gusting to 41 MPH, and it's possible we see some gusts get close to 50. We've seen that now in Portsmouth were close to it, and already a few 1000 power outages across the state of New Hampshire, certainly down into Massachusetts and southern New England, so as we go through the evening. The pulse in the area where we're seeing some of the strongest wind gusts shifts from the south to the north, with gusts near 50 maybe even exceeding that close to 60 MPH by later on. Tonight, this is 10 o'clock. You see some of strong discussed north by midnight. We are still seeing us, but it's not. The 50 mile per hour wind gusted sentence between about 20 to 30 MPH and even tomorrow will be a breezy day with gusts between 15 to 20 MPH. First the rainfall goes and the heavy, heavy downpours of rain storms it lists northward through this evening. In fact, by 89 o'clock, it's lifting to the north by midnight. It's gone. Maybe a few lingering showers north, but we will see the sunshine on Wednesday morning, and it'll be a bright day on Wednesday, though breezy. The other thing to note the dew points have been running very high. The air ferry saturated. That's what's helped fuel some of these thunderstorms and heavy downpours of rain in Manchester 74 degree dew point right now, so it feels very soupy temperatures of the dew. Points are in the sixties and even some fifties back to our west. So that's the drier air that works in following this storm tonight. Temperatures in the sixties, partly cloudy skies and tomorrow, full sunshine. We dry out the winds, still breezy and look attempts near 90 places like Manchester down into Nashua, and we see a lot of sunshine following this system. It's very quiet. Chance of some storms in the afternoon on Saturday otherwise were sunny through the weekend with temperatures meant to upper eighties.
