Synopsis
High pressure remains south of the region through Monday. A cold front approaches Tuesday, crosses the area Tuesday night, then exits Wednesday. High pressure builds toward the region Thursday.

Near Term - Through Monday
A warm front will lift north of the region today. Surface high pressure will remain centered south of the region today through Monday. Aloft, a disturbance will clip northern Maine this morning in advance of a building ridge. The upper level ridge then builds across the region tonight into Monday. Expect partly sunny skies, with isolated showers also possible, across northern Aroostook county this morning. Otherwise, generally expect mostly clear skies across the forecast area today through Monday. Patchy fog is also possible, mostly Downeast, tonight. Record warm temperatures are possible both today and Monday. High temperatures today will range from the upper 70s to around 80 north, to the mid to upper 70s interior Downeast with lower to mid 70s along the Downeast coast. Low temperatures tonight will generally range from the lower to mid 50s across the forecast area. High temperatures Monday 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 - Monday Night Through Wednesday
High pressure south of our area will continue to bring a very warm southwesterly return flow across the region Monday night. This will result in a very mild night under the glow of the harvest moon with lows in the low to mid 50s.

A southwesterly flow will continue on Tuesday as high pressure south of the area slides out to sea and a cold front begins to approach. Tuesday will be another very warm day ahead of the front with inland highs topping out in the mid to upper 70s. Clouds will increase from northwest to southeast ahead of the front and showers will begin to push into the area from the west late Tuesday afternoon. The NAM is pushing CAPES up to 600 J/KG while the GFS (Global Forecast System) is showing too much capping to support any CAPE. Will keep a slight chance for thunderstorms ahead of the front on Tuesday with the best chance for some convective elements across the central and northern highlands.

The cold front pushes across the area Tuesday night. Sharp frontal convergence and moisture ahead of the front should support a solid line of showers along the front. Forecast guidance continues to show the potential for a bit of enhancement from a shallow shortwave disturbance approaching from the west as the front moves though. Rain amounts of a half to three quarters of an inch are likely with localized bands up to an inch.

Rain ends across the north by early Wednesday morning and tapers off Downeast around midday. High pressure will follow from Central Canada pushing cooler and drier air in behind the front.

Long Term - Wednesday Night Through Saturday
Cool Canadian high pressure building in from the west will bring a blustery and cold night Wednesday night with lows by Thursday morning below freezing in the northwest and down to the 30s Downeast.

Canadian high pressure dropping to our west will bring a mostly sunny, brisk and cool day on Thursday with highs in the 50s across the area. High pressure will continue to our south Thursday night into Friday. This will bring a chilly night Thursday night followed by a breezy day on Friday in the return flow behind high pressure and ahead of a new front.

A new cold front may begin to approach Friday night. Most of the models slide this front off to the Northeast with the GFS bringing the front closer than the ECMWF. This looks like a dry frontal passage with the high to our south not having enough time to carry moisture back into the area in the return flow.

Marine
Near Term: Winds/seas below small craft advisory levels today through Monday. Patchy fog possible later tonight into Monday morning.

Short Term: A SCA (Small Craft Advisory) will likely be needed Tuesday into Tuesday night for SW winds gusting over 25 kt. Seas will build to 4 to 5 ft Tuesday and 5 to 6 ft Tuesday night in response to the southwesterly wind. Humid air over the cooler water may result in some mist and fog into early Wednesday morning. Good vsby should return Wednesday afternoon through the end of the week.

Fire Weather
Isolated showers possible across northern Aroostook county this morning. Otherwise, dry today through Monday with record warmth possible. A wetting rain is expected later Tuesday into Wednesday, when rainfall of a quarter to three quarters of an inch is likely. South/southwest wind gusts up to around 20 mph are expected Sunday/Monday/Tuesday afternoons. Wednesday afternoon into Thursday should see a return of dry and much cooler conditions with gusty northerly winds.
