Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Caribou ME 325pm EST Sat Jan 25 2025 Synopsis A cold front approaches from the west tonight and crosses Sunday. High pressure briefly builds in Sunday night. Another front approaches later Monday and crosses the region Monday night and Tuesday. A clipper type system will cross the region on Wednesday followed by high pressure on Thursday. Near Term - Through Sunday After a mainly clear evening, clouds will be on the increase later tonight, in advance of an approaching short wave from the west. The increasing clouds should prevent any widespread sub zero lows temperatures overnight. Still lows are expected to drop into the single digits above zero early this evening and then slowly rise after midnight with the increase in clouds. Could see isolated snow showers getting into the North Maine s toward daybreak. The short wave crosses the region Sunday. This brings the chance for snow showers to the region. mainly Katahdin on region on north. Afternoon highs on Sunday will be above normal, in the mid 20s north and lower 30s Bangor and Downeast. Short Term - Sunday Night Through Tuesday Surface hipressure will be building over the area Sunday evening before the ridge axis slides east by daybreak Monday. Wraparound light snow showers possible early over the far northwest with only a dusting expected. Warm front will be approaching from the southwest Monday morning and lifting thru the area during the afternoon. Arctic front will still be well back to the west dropping through eastern Ontario and racing toward CWA. Light snow showers expected to move into nwarning areas in the afternoon as lift from front approaches. Temps on Monday will warm to above normal in the warm sector ahead of approaching arctic front. Guidance is showing arctic front along the international border around 06z Tuesday with widespread snow showers across the north overnight. All parameters are showing possibility of snow squalls along the front which, for most of the area, looks to be moving through overnight. Based on most forecast models by 12z Tuesday the front looks to be located over central areas before pushing offshore late Tuesday morning. Have gone with scattered snow showers after daybreak along the front but any squalls will likely impact the morning commute along the I95 corridor and points south. Once the arctic front moves through temps will continue to fall. Temps looks to start off in the lower 20s north, around 30 Downeast and by Tuesday evening they will fall toward 0 across the northwest and into the teens along the coast. Winds in the warm sector will be out of the south from 10-20kts with ocnl gusts to 25-30kts over higher elevations. Winds will be highest along the coast and outer islands and likely increase in the evening. Fropa occurring Tuesday morning will veer winds to the west with gusts to near 30kts at times. This coupled with falling snow and or/fluffy snow that already fell likely to result in blowing snow in the afternoon. Long Term - Tuesday Night Through Saturday Tuesday night will see tight pressure gradient over the area early before relaxing as brief ridge of high pressure build in. H9 temps drop to between -20 and -25 across the north Wednesday morning with mins dropping to negative double digits over far northern Aroostook County. If winds can lighten temps may be able to drop off more over the North s, especially given fresh snow cover. However given the short amount of time between departing low and approaching clipper am not overly confident that mins will be able to drop much lower than currently forecast. Fast-moving clipper will move into western New England Wednesday morning spreading snow into southern areas. Given light and fluffy nature of the snow cannot rule out 2-4 inches of snow from Bangor and points south. 12z GFS (Global Forecast System) brings clipper through southern New England while CMC, EC and their ensemble means move it thru swarning Maine. System heads into the Maritimes Wednesday night and Thursday with strong pressure gradient over the region again behind yet another arctic front. Highs on Thursday will struggle to reach zero across the north and the middle teens on the coast. Cold wind chills are expected throughout the day with gusty NW winds acrs the area. High pressure builds in late in the week and early next weekend. Marine Near Term: Winds/seas will increase to SCA (Small Craft Advisory) levels tonight and then continue on Sunday. Light freezing spray expected this evening. Short Term: Small craft Sunday night will increase to gale force over all waters Monday afternoon continuing into early Tuesday evening. Seas will increase toward 15 feet over the outer waters Tuesday morning in southerly swell. Winds and seas look to drop to marginal SCA (Small Craft Advisory) levels by Wednesday morning before increasing Wednesday night. NOAA Caribou ME Office - Watches - Warnings - Advisories ME...None. Marine Small Craft Advisory from 1am Sunday to 10am EST Monday for ANZ050-051. Small Craft Advisory from 7am Sunday to 10am EST Monday for ANZ052. |
