AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CARIBOU ME
1225 PM EDT THU APR 14 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE REGION THROUGH THE UPCOMING
WEEKEND. A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND MONDAY.
&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
12 PM UPDATE...HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT FIRE WEATHER FRIDAY AFTERNOON
WITH LOW RH AND STRONGER WINDS. THIS WILL BE MOSTLY IN THE
SOUTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA.

AM ALSO MONITORING THE SAINT JOHN RIVER UPSTEAM OF ST FRANCIS
WHERE ICE JAMS REMAIN IN PLACE. THIS WILL BE AN AREA OF CONCERN
OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS UNTIL THE ICE RELEASES.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...A REX BLOCK DEVELOPS OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS
AS A CLOSED 500H RIDGE DEVELOPS ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY AND A
CLOSED LOW REMAINS PARKED ACROSS THE SE U.S. A SHORTWAVE TROUGH
ACROSS NEW ENGLAND WILL SLOWLY GET SHUNTED OFF TO THE EAST TODAY
AND TONIGHT. THE 00Z KCAR SOUNDING HAD A 850H TEMP OF -7.7C AND A
925H TEMP OF -2.2C, AND MODELS DO NOT INDICATE MUCH IN THE WAY OF
WARMING ALOFT DURING THE NEXT 24 HOURS, SO SUSPECT THAT
TEMPERATURES THIS AFTERNOON WILL BE SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY WITH
HIGHS IN THE LOW TO MID 40S IN THE FAR NORTH TO AROUND 50 DEGREES
IN THE GREATER BANGOR REGION. IT WILL BE SUNNY OR AT LEAST MOSTLY
SO WITH NOTHING MORE THAN SOME HIGH/THIN CIRRUS AT TIMES. CLEAR
AND COOL TONIGHT WITH LOWS MOSTLY IN THE 20S, BUT WITH TEENS IN
THE NORMALLY COLDER NW BROAD VALLEYS AND CLOSER TO THE FREEZING
MARK ALONG SHORELINE ROADS.
&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING, WITH A WARMING TREND FRIDAY HEADING INTO THE
WEEKEND, AS A STRONG BLOCKING HIGH DEVELOPS OVER THE GREAT LAKES.
THIS PUTS US ON THE EAST (DRY) SIDE OF THE UPPER LEVEL HIGH WITH
A TASTE OF SPRING WEATHER.

A BIT BREEZY ON FRIDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 40S TO LOW 50S. THERE
WILL BE A FAIRLY SIGNIFICANT SYSTEM A BIT SOUTH OF NOVA SCOTIA
FRIDAY. IT APPEARS THAT PRECIPITATION WITH THE SYSTEM WILL REMAIN
SOUTH OF THE STATE, ALTHOUGH CAN'T TOTALLY RULE OUT THE EXTREME NW
EDGE OF THE PRECIPITATION SKIMMING THE COASTAL WATERS BEFORE THE
SYSTEM MOVES SOUTH AND AWAY FROM US SATURDAY.

A SEASONALLY COOL NIGHT FRIDAY NIGHT WITH MANY AREAS BELOW
FREEZING, BUT WARMER SATURDAY WITH GENERALLY MID TO UPPER 50S AND
PLENTY OF SUNSHINE. LESS BREEZY SATURDAY WITH SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDING INTO THE REGION FROM THE NORTH.
&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
EASILY THE WARMEST DAY OF THE YEAR SO FAR FOR SUNDAY, WITH HIGHS IN
THE 60S FOR MANY AREAS. THE GREAT LAKES BLOCKING HIGH BREAKS DOWN
EARLY NEXT WEEK, AS A DECENT COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH ROUGHLY LATE
MONDAY. COULD BE WARM AGAIN SOME AREAS JUST AHEAD OF THE FRONT
MONDAY, DEPENDING ON THE TIMING OF THE FRONT, BUT THEN IT TURNS
QUITE A BIT COOLER MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY. MOST PRECIP WITH THE
FRONT SHOULD FALL AS RAIN, ALTHOUGH BEHIND THE FRONT LATE MONDAY
NIGHT INTO TUESDAY, THERE COULD BE SOME LINGERING LIGHT RAIN OR
SNOW SHOWERS.

COOLER NORTHWEST FLOW AND SOMEWHAT UNSETTLED PATTERN TUESDAY AND
THE FEW FOLLOWING DAYS, ALTHOUGH MODELS DISAGREE AS TO JUST HOW
COOL AND UNSETTLED. BUT SAFE TO SAY THAT ONE WOULD BE WISE TO TAKE
ADVANTAGE OF THE TASTE OF SPRING THIS WEEKEND.
&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
NEAR TERM: VFR FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS.

SHORT TERM: VFR AREAWIDE FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND.
&&

.MARINE...
NEAR TERM: A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY REMAIN IN EFFECT THIS
MORNING, MAINLY FOR WIND GUSTS TO AROUND 25 KNOTS ON THE COASTAL
WATERS. THE WIND WILL LIKELY SETTLE DOWN THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS
EVENING WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER PERIOD OF GUSTS TO AROUND
25 KNOTS LATER TONIGHT WHEN ANOTHER SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL
LIKELY BE REQUIRED.

SHORT TERM: SMALL CRAFT NORTHEAST WINDS FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY
MORNING WILL SUBSIDE LATE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN. SEAS 3 TO 7 FEET FRIDAY INTO EARLY SATURDAY, SUBSIDING
TO 2 TO 4 FEET INTO SUNDAY.
&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
THE MOST SIGNIFICANT FIRE CONCERN OF THE SEASON SO FAR EXISTS
FRIDAY INTO THE WEEKEND THANKS TO NO PRECIPITATION WEDNESDAY
THROUGH SUNDAY, WARMER TEMPERATURES, LOW AFTERNOON RELATIVE
HUMIDITIES, AND THE FACT THAT GREENUP HAS NOT OCCURRED YET.
AFTERNOON RHS WILL BE IN THE 20S TO LOW 30S FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY
AS DAYTIME HIGH TEMPERATURES RISE FROM AROUND 50 FRIDAY TO THE
60S SUNDAY. DECENT BREEZE FOR FRIDAY, BUT LIGHTER WINDS INTO THE
WEEKEND AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OVERHEAD.
&&
