Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Gray ME
336 PM EDT Fri Jul 23 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
Scattered showers and thunderstorms are across the region this
afternoon and will wane as the sunsets. High pressure will build
in with clear skies tomorrow. A front will approach the region
overnight Saturday and cross the area on Sunday morning bringing
widespread rain and thunder.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 8 PM THIS EVENING/...
Scattered showers and thunderstorms persist across the region
this afternoon as upper level trough keeps freezing levels low.
Most of these storms are Pulse type, quick to intensify and
quick to pass. With the low freezing levels have had reports of
hail and expect some very isolated wind damage with the
strongest cores collapsing. Convective initiation is very much
tied to the diurnal heating and thus expect the reverse later
this evening with coverage rapidly decreasing after sunset. HRRR
has done a good job with the timing and general coverage of the
convection and have leaned on it for the PoP for the next
several hours.

&&

.SHORT TERM /8 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SATURDAY/...
Overnight after storms decrease we'll see clear skies.
Satellite reveals a broad area of dry air to our west and expect
temperatures to fall rapidly as a result. Lows will drop the low
50s with some northern valleys in the 40s. While it's generally
dry, midday dew points are in the 50s and expect fog to form in
the CT river valley, and possibly up into the northern
Androscoggin.

For Saturday expect clear skies with high pressure. A robust
seabreeze will likely push inland as far as Sebago lake and keep
temperatures cooler along the coast.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Low pressure will be passing well north of the area as it travels
through central Quebec Sunday morning, with a warm front associated
with the system approaching the area at this time. Widespread shower
ahead of the front will be ongoing Sunday morning. The rain will
mostly end across western New Hampshire by the early afternoon as
the region tries to break into the warm sector behind the warm
front. The warm air is notoriously stubborn to actually make it in
with these type of set ups, but if and where it does make will stand
the best chance of seeing a few stronger thunderstorms Sunday
afternoon as the cold front approaches. Areas farther east into
Maine will likely hold onto the showers for more of the afternoon
hours, thus minimizing the risk of storms across these areas.

The front will most likely be clearing the coastline by Monday
morning, with our trough dominated pattern continuing for the
foreseeable future. Next week will continue to be characterized by
temperatures generally near to below normal, with frontal passages
roughly every other day and broad surface high pressure in between.

High pressure looks to be in control for Monday, with seasonable
highs and mainly sunny skies. A cold front will approach later
Tuesday, likely brining a round of afternoon showers and
thunderstorms. The front will likely clear the area on Wednesday,
yielding clearing and improving conditions during the daytime
on Wednesday as weak high pressure builds into the area for
Wednesday night and Thursday. Another front will likely approach
the area by late next week, but it's too early to tell and
there is significant model divergence on where and when the low
will track through, so at this time I'm keeping an increased
chance of POP's for the end of the time period.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Short Term...
Scattered showers and thunderstorms are ongoing
across the region and may briefly impact CON MHT PSM through the
next few hours. Showers will end after sunset with valley fog in
the CT river impacting HIE and LEB overnight. Sunny skies and
VFR will continue through the day on Saturday.

Long Term...
Widespread showers will bring restrictions Sunday morning,
lasting through most of the afternoon across eastern terminals,
while western terminals see a period of VFR/MVFR conditions Sunday
starting late morning before scattered thunderstorms develop in the
late afternoon hours. VFR conditions return Monday, with
another chance of showers and storms returning Tuesday
afternoon. VFR conditions likely return later on Wednesday.

&&

.MARINE...
Short Term... Few scattered thunderstorms will move over Casco
Bay and the midcoast for the next few hours. Otherwise calm
winds and seas will hold through the start of the weekend.

Long Term...
A front will cross the region on Sunday morning with rain, and
thunderstorms. Winds will go NW behind the front.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
High astronomical tides will bring water levels just to minor
flood stage across New Hampshire and southwest Maine. With calm
seas and little wave action have opted for a Coastal Flood
statement to highlight the elevated water levels.

&&
