The weather and climate across the state of New Hampshire is not very consistent, as it changes often in different regions.  General trends over the entire state include short and warm summers, with long and cold winters. 

            The Merrimack Valley Region (found at the central southern portion of the state), which surrounds the state capital of Concord, experiences four distinct seasons.  The warmest months of the year are July and August, during which time the daily high temperatures will reach into the mid 80’s, with extremely hot days reaching the 90’s.  The summer season is short, and fall weather quickly follows.  Fall is perhaps the best time to visit the area because the changing colors of the foliage are absolutely beautiful.  Visit the Trip Advisor Concord Page for more information about this particular location.  

            Moving further north to the White Mountains Region, weather gets noticeably colder.   The warmer summer months of July and August will only see average daytime highs in the upper 70’s.  From November until February, on average the temperature never rises above freezing.  The months of May and September experience cool temperatures that can be quite comfortable.  Precipitation throughout this region is fairly consistent, with snow or rain always being a possibility.
