Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Caribou ME
806 PM EDT Sat Aug 25 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure will exit to the southeast Sunday. A warm front
will cross the area Sunday night and usher very warm and humid
air into the area Monday through Wednesday. A strong cold front
will cross Maine late Wednesday and Wednesday night.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
650pm Update...
Made a few tweaks to sky, mainly to raise it a bit next few
hours, otherwise no changes.

Previous Discussion...
High pressure centered east of Nova Scotia will ridge westward
across the forecast area tonight then begin to move southeast
Sunday. An upper level disturbance and surface trof will
approach northwest areas later Sunday. Partly cloudy to mostly
clear skies are expected across the forecast area tonight, with
patchy fog developing overnight. Cloud cover will increase
across northern areas Sunday, with scattered showers possible
during the afternoon. Mostly/partly sunny skies are expected
Downeast Sunday. Low temperatures tonight will generally range
from the mid to upper 50s across the forecast area. High
temperatures Sunday will range from around 80 to the lower 80s
across much of the forecast area, with mid to upper 70s along
the Downeast coast.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
On Sunday night, a weakening H500 trof and sfc warm front will
cross the area with the risk of some elevated convection and
have maintained a slight chance of thunderstorms...mostly before
midnight. Any showers in the evening will enhance the risk of
subsequent fog with high pressure and subsidence increasing
later in the night. Lows will be in the lower 60s for most of
the area. High pressure at the sfc and aloft builds through
Monday with dry conditions, increased humidity and highs in the
mid to upper 80s...even near the coast. The powerful subtropical
high builds Monday and Tuesday with heat reaching more
oppressive levels on Tuesday. Dew points reach the low 70s and
highs in Bangor reach about 90F. Towards northern Aroostook
County, there is a chance that a cold front could ease towards
the northern border late in the day and serve as a trigger for
some thunderstorms. Any storms could produce heavy rainfall
given PWs around 2 inches, a potential LLJ, and expected Corfidi
vectors. If the trend continues with subsequent guidance, may
have to include mention of heavy rainfall in the forecast grids.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
The cold front retreats northward Tuesday night and any
thunderstorm activity will diminish. Fog is possible in the
humid air mass...especially where afternoon thunderstorms
occurred. Have trended above most guidance Tuesday night with
lows in the lower 70s. Temperatures springboard in the upper 80s
to lower 90s on Wednesday afternoon with continued dew points
near 70F. This climax to an unusually warm summer ends later
Wednesday with a strong cold front that will likely produce a
line of thunderstorms...weakening as they propagate
southeastward after dusk. Guidance is now trending a bit slower
for the frontal passage and have increased lows Wednesday night. The
payback for enduring heat early in the week arrives for
Thursday through Saturday in the form of cool Canadian high
pressure. Highs will be in the low to mid 70s and lows will dip
into the 40s for many locations Thursday and Friday nights.
Winds will be gusty on Thursday with a tight pressure gradient
behind the front.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
NEAR TERM: VFR conditions are expected across the region early
tonight. Variable conditions are then expected with patchy fog
later tonight through early Sunday. After any morning fog
dissipates, generally expect VFR conditions Sunday. However,
local MVFR conditions are possible across northern areas during
the afternoon with any showers.

SHORT TERM: There's a slight chance of thunderstorms Sunday
evening with a warm front. Fog is most likely at BHB and coastal
locations during Sunday night, but may briefly affect all sites
near sunrise Monday morning. All sites will become VFR during
Monday morning. There is a chance of fog recurring Monday night
at BHB and along the coast. It will be a very humid air mass
with increasingly long nights, so some patchy fog is possible at
all sites Monday night, Tuesday night and Wednesday evening.
Heavy afternoon thunderstorms are possible Tuesday afternoon and
evening north of PQI. This will also have a bearing on
subsequent fog formation that night. Finally, a strong cold
front crossing late Wednesday will probably bring a line of
thunderstorms.

&&

.MARINE...
NEAR TERM: Winds/seas will remain below small craft advisory
levels tonight through Sunday. Visibilities will be reduced in
patchy fog later tonight into Sunday morning.

SHORT TERM: Fog will be an issue Sunday night through Wednesday
night. There's a slight chance of seas and winds approaching
advisory criteria Wednesday night, but the latest trends are
reducing the likelihood.
