Trump rally in New Hampshire postponed due to weather

President Trump's scheduled campaign rally in New Hampshire this weekend will be postponed, the White House said Friday, due to expected storms in the area.
White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters traveling with the president to Florida that the rally will be put on hold for a "week or two."
Tropical Storm Fay is expected to make landfall in New Jersey on Friday, and its projected path shows that it will reach New Hampshire by Saturday. The storm is expected to produce heavy winds and rain.
The president was scheduled to rally supporters in Portsmouth, N.H., on Saturday evening. The event was slated to take place in an airplane hangar that is open on at least one side.
“The rally scheduled for Saturday in Portsmouth, New Hampshire has been postponed for safety reasons because of Tropical Storm Fay. It will be rescheduled and a new date will be announced soon,†Tim Murtaugh, communications director for the Trump campaign, said in a statement.
Trump added in a tweet he would return to the state "soon."
