Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Gray ME
321 PM EST Tue Nov 9 2021

.SYNOPSIS...
Tonight into Wednesday a weak front will bring a chance of rain
or snow showers to mainly the mountains. However a much more
organized system will approach Friday. A band of rain will push
steadily across the region, occasionally heavy at times. Behind
this storm we return to cooler with unsettled weather for the
weekend and into next week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
An approaching short wave from the west and an area of weak low
pressure will continue to push east towards New England
tonight. Clouds will gradually increase and thicken from
northwest to southeast during the overnight hours. Late night
precipitation will be relatively light and mainly in the north.
The higher peaks may sufficiently cool to allow for some light
snow over the highest peaks.

The warmth from today and the increasing overnight clouds will
allow for mild temperatures during the overnight hours with
widespread 40s over southern and central locations.

Quiet and colder conditions will develop as high pressure builds
into the region from southeast Canada Wednesday night. Most
areas will drop into the 20s for overnight lows as some
radiational cooling develops during the late night hours.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
After a few morning showers, this weak system will quickly exit
the region Wednesday morning before intensifying as it exits
through the Canadian Maritimes. Behind this strengthening
system, a west to northwest flow will develop. With cold air
advection and increased mixing heights, winds may become briefly gusty
for a period during the afternoon hours.

The most cloud cover will hold up across the elevated terrain
where upslope conditions will develop. Despite the cold air
advection, downsloping will allow for temperatures in the 50s
for highs in central and southern portions of the region.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Overview: After brief ridging on Thursday a deep trough will begin
to move into northern New England on Friday bringing a return to
cooler and unsettled weather. This trough will stick around through
much of next week.

Impacts: A period of moderate to locally heavy rain is likely
on Friday afternoon and night as an approaching frontal
boundary interacts with deep tropical moisture.

Forecast Details: A 500 mb ridge will move into New England on
Thursday, which will allow for a pleasant day as high temperatures
reach the 40s to lower 50s from north to south under partly cloudy
skies. Skies will then become mostly cloudy overnight as a
developing area of low pressure moves through the Great Lakes in
association with a deep trough through the center of the
country. The increasing cloud cover and dew points through the
night will limit nighttime lows to the 30s and low 40s.

On Friday the ridge will begin to move to our east as the deep
trough begins to knock at our doorstep. The deepening upper level
low over the Great Lakes will push a frontal system through the area
late in the day, which will result in a period of moderate to
locally heavy rainfall through the night. Latest ensemble and
deterministic forecast guidance keeps this frontal passage fairly
progressive, which despite increasing PWATs should decrease the
likelihood for significant flooding issues. Nevertheless, if
the rain does fall hard enough then there could be some minor
poor drainage flooding, especially where fallen leaves clog
storm drains. The latest ensemble guidance brings between 0.5 to
1.50 inches to the area, highest across the foothills. A non-
diurnal temperature trend is also likely overnight on Friday as
increasing southerly flow off the Atlantic helps to increase
surface dew points.

Saturday will be the last mild day before the main trough axis moves
over the region on Saturday night. Skies will generally be
mostly cloudy but the majority of the day will be dry as high
temperatures reach the 40s and 50s. If some peaks of sun occur
then a few southern locations may once again make a run for the
60 degree mark. The trough will be firmly in place by Sunday
with high temperatures generally limited to the 30s across the
mountains to the 40s elsewhere. A few rain and snow showers will
remain possible as a weak shortwave trough gets pulled down
within the broad upper level low.

Continued cool conditions and unsettled weather is then
expected through early next week as a series of weak waves move
through the broad trough axis located across the eastern CONUS.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Short Term...Clouds will continue to increase this evening with
scattered showers arriving late tonight and lasting into
Wednesday morning. A few of the rain showers may be mixed with
snow showers across the high terrain. MVFR conditions will
develop with the scattered precipitation and patchy fog. A brief
period of IFR conditions will be possible over northern areas
through Wednesday morning, before conditions begin to dry out.
VFR conditions expected Wednesday afternoon and Wednesday night.

Long Term...Ridging overhead will result in VFR conditions on
Thursday through the first half of Friday. An approaching
cold front in association with an area of low pressure to our
west will bring IFR or lower conditions under bands of +RA at
times late Friday through Friday night. VFR/MVFR conditions will
then return for both Saturday and Sunday with some lingering
SHRA expected.

&&

.MARINE...
Short Term...Although conditions are marginal, have opted to
raise Small Craft Advisories up along the outer waters Monday
afternoon and Monday evening. Atmospheric profiles suggest an
increasing west, northwest gradient developing during that
period. This wind flow along would cold air advection over the
relatively warmer ocean waters should allow for gusts into the
25 kt plus range for a short period.

Long Term...Winds and seas will increase on Friday ahead of an
approaching cold front. SCA conditions are expected for all
waters with Gale conditions also possible for the outer waters
as southerly winds gust up to 35-40 kts Friday afternoon and
evening with seas of 6-10 feet outside of the bays. Winds will
gradually diminish on Saturday behind the front but seas will
remain elevated through Sunday.

.GYX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
ME...None.
NH...None.
MARINE...Small Craft Advisory from 3 PM to 10 PM EST Wednesday for
