When will New Hampshire get its first snow? What the Farmers' Almanac fall forecast says
It might seem early to start thinking about snow, but the northeast might see its first snow by mid to late October, the Farmers' Almanac predicts. In its extended fall forecast, the Farmers' Almanac called the upcoming season a "flirty, flurry fall." Snow will be a "regular visitor" across much of the north this fall, the Farmers' Almanac said. However, this fall is expected to bring "a little bit of everything," the almanac said, so New Englanders are encouraged to keep an eye on the weather. However, the northeast should be dry and cool when autumn begins on Sept. 22, the Farmers' Almanac said. The tail end of summer could be soggy, with thunderstorms threatening parts of New England, including New Hampshire, over Labor Day weekend, according to the almanac. It said October will bring "familiar" fall weather to the northeast, with locations at higher altitudes "flirting" with early snow. Around the end of October, those partaking in Halloween festivities might need to bundle up in jackets and scarves, according to the Farmers' Almanac. It said Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Maine, Vermont, and Connecticut could see fair skies and then showers on Oct. 31. As October rolls into November, parts of the northeast could experience some wet snow, the almanac said. Although light snow and rain could snarl holiday travel plans to and from the East Coast, the weather might clear up just in time for Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 27, according to the almanac. The Farmers' Almanac, which is a distinct publication from the Old Farmer's Almanac, has been published annually since 1818. The almanac provides long-range weather predictions, gardening tips, holiday information, and a slew of different calendars for its readers.

Brits warned as temperatures set to reach blistering 30C in some parts
Brits must brace for four days of hot weather, with an amber heat health alert in force. In some areas, temperatures could reach 30C. The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) alert - the second in two weeks - which covers London, the East Midlands, South East, South West and East of England, will last until 6pm on Tuesday. A yellow heat health alert also covers Yorkshire and the Humber and the West Midlands over the same period. Significant heatwave to finish June, but not as hot this time for northern and western areas. Temperatures in south-east could peak at 34/35C 🥵 (June record is 35.6C set in 1976 & 1957) — Matt Taylor (@MetMattTaylor) June 27, 2025 The previous amber health heat alert was issued for all parts of England on 19 June, the first time it had been used since September 2023. The UKHSA alerts are designed to warn health and social care workers about the impacts of hot weather on their services, including possible weather-related deaths in those aged 65 or with long-term conditions. They are not public weather warnings. Europe is also facing severe weather, with wildfires breaking out just south of Athens on Thursday and authorities banning outdoor activity and non-essential travel for building and delivery staff on Friday.

Met Office meteorologist Jonathan Vautrey said: "The big talking point at the moment is the rise in temperatures we're going to be seeing over the next few days." Conditions in Glastonbury, where more than 200,000 festival-goers will be exposed to the heat, are expected to be between 26 and 27 degrees this weekend.
