Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Caribou ME
558 PM EDT Sat Jun 25 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
An upper level ridge builds over the area tonight and Sunday.
A cold front will approach Sunday night, then cross the region
Monday. High pressure will build across the region Tuesday into
Wednesday then begin to move east Thursday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/...
555 PM Update: Chgs this update include lowering PoPs below slgt
chc for the remainder of he eve ovr Downeast areas with radar
imagery showing nearest shwrs ovr Ern NB prov attm, with
corresponding cld cvr also reduced ovr this ptn of the FA durg
this tm frame. Lastly, fcst ovrngt lows across Nrn areas, spcly
broad rvr vly areas were lowered all due the entrainment of
lower dwpts from QB prov behind a weakening cold front now
between KMLT and KBGR. Fcst hrly temps were then adjusted
between obsvd hi temps a couple of hrs ago this aftn, latest
avbl obsvd temps, and the new ovrngt lows posted between 4-5 am
EDT.

Prev Disc: A large upper level ridge will settle over the
region tonight. RH models show mostly clear skies early tonight
after the remaining cumulus clear out. As the night continues,
calm, variable winds will shift to onshore, pushing warmer,
moist air into the region. Thus, some high clouds are expected.
This onshore wind and cloud cover could drive down any fog that
developed earlier in the night. Temps should be near normal.

By Sunday, the upper level ridge will continue to influence the
area, bringing very warm temps and humidity. 925Mb temps
indicate +20-22C across the south in the afternoon, making
surface temps reach into the low to mid 80s. Moist air from the
onshore winds will help increase dewpoints in the area. However,
it will also decrease temps right along the coast, which will be
the only area seeing temps below 80 on Sunday. Tightening
pressure gradients will help increase wind in the afternoon,
which could bring some relief. Expect gusts up to 20 mph.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
An initial cold front/pre-frontal trof will approach the Saint
Lawrence River Valley later Sunday night. Expect partly cloudy skies
early Sunday night. Clouds will then increase overnight with a
chance of showers late across mostly northwest/west areas.
Warm/moist air crossing the cold waters of the Gulf of Maine and
moving inland will also support areas of fog expanding north.
The initial cold front/pre-frontal trof will cross the region
in advance of the primary front Monday. Showers/thunderstorms
will cross the region Monday. Abundant moisture will be drawn
north in advance of the cold front with precipitable water
values of 1.50 to 2.00 inches. This moisture will help support
locally heavy rainfall and have kept the mention of heavy rain
in the forecast. The primary cold front will exit the Downeast
coast early Monday night. Showers/thunderstorms will persist
Downeast early Monday night, with decreasing shower chances in
the wake of the front. Across northern areas, could still have a
chance of showers early Monday night, with showers ending along
with decreasing clouds overnight. High pressure will build
across the region later Monday night/Tuesday. Generally expect
partly cloudy skies Tuesday. However, a possible upper level
disturbance could bring the slight chance of an afternoon
shower. Expect near normal level temperatures Monday/Tuesday.
More humid conditions will occur Monday in advance of the cold
front, with less humid conditions Tuesday in the wake of the
cold front.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
High pressure will bring mostly clear skies Tuesday night. A weak
cold front/trof and upper level disturbance could cross the region
later Wednesday into Thursday. Generally expect partly cloudy skies
Wednesday into Thursday, along with a slight chance/chance of
showers Wednesday afternoon into Thursday. Uncertainty exists
regarding the timing of a potential cold front later Friday into
Saturday. A more rapid frontal progression could bring a chance
of showers/thunderstorms starting Friday afternoon then
persisting into Saturday. A slower frontal progression could
delay shower/thunderstorm chances to Saturday. Temperatures will
be at near normal, to slightly above normal, levels Wednesday
through Saturday.

&&

.AVIATION /22Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
NEAR TERM: VFR conditions expected tonight and Sunday. Some
marine layer fog could push into BHB tonight, making for MVFR
conditions, but confidence is low so did not include in TAFs.
