NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAY MAINE
420 PM EDT FRI AUG 29 2008
CLOUDS ASSOCIATED WITH A LOW OFFSHORE WERE PULLING OUT TO SEA THIS
AFTERNOON... ALLOWING MORE SUNSHINE THROUGH MAINE. BREAKS IN THE
CLOUDS WERE IN PLAY ACROSS ALL OF NEW HAMPSHIRE EARLIER.
TEMPERATURES RESPONDED TO THE SUNSHINE BY MOVING UP INTO THE MID AND
UPPER 70S IN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND THE LOWER TO MID 70S IN SOUTHERN
MAINE... AWAY FROM THE COAST. THE NORTHERN SECTIONS AND COASTAL
AREAS WERE SHOWING TEMPERATURES IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S AT 4 PM.
A WEAK COLD FRONT APPROACHING FROM THE WEST WAS ALREADY SETTING OFF
SOME LIGHT SHOWERS IN PARTS OF NEW HAMPSHIRE THIS AFTERNOON. THESE
SHOWERS WILL BE SCATTERED AS THEY CONTINUE TO SPRINT EAST INTO
MAINE. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL SPAN FROM THE 50S IN MOST PLACES TO
LOWER 60S WELL SOUTH IN BOTH STATES. THE COLD FRONT IS GOING TO
CROSS OUR REGION SATURDAY... SO EXPECT SOME SHOWERS AS THIS FRONT
MOVES THROUGH NEW HAMPSHIRE AND MAINE SATURDAY. IT WON/T BE A RAIN
OUT... BUT ON THE OTHER HAND IT WILL BE MORE CLOUDY THAN MOST LIKE.
HIGH PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO QUICKLY BUILD IN SATURDAY NIGHT AND
REMAIN IN CONTROL FOR THE REST OF THE WEEKEND. THIS HIGH SHOULD
HANG ON WITH GREAT WEATHER EXPECTED RIGHT THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT WEEK.
THERE MAY BE SOME CLOUDS ACROSS NORTHERN AND EASTERN MAINE AROUND
MID WEEK... BUT THAT IS ABOUT IT. TEMPERATURES WILL WARM NICELY
DURING THE DAY PUSHING ABOVE NORMAL LEVELS FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.
COMFORTABLE NIGHTS WILL BE PART OF THIS WEATHER PACKAGE THROUGH THE
REST OF THE COMING WORKWEEK

THERE WERE SOME PATCHES OF CLOUDINESS OVERNIGHT... BUT FOR THE
MOST PART OUR WEATHER WAS RATHER UNEVENTFUL. TEMPERATURES WERE QUITE
PLEASANT FOR LATE AUGUST... WITH MOST SPOTS BOTTOMING OUT IN THE
50S. HOWEVER... SOME TOWNS DROPPED INTO THE 40S. ALLAGASH MAINE
RECORDED A CHILLY 41 DEGREES THIS MORNING. WHILE IT REMAINED DRY
OVERNIGHT... SOME LIGHT RAIN MOVED INTO EASTERN MAINE FROM NEW
BRUNSWICK JUST AFTER SUNRISE. THERE WAS STILL SOME LIGHT RAIN ACROSS
EASTERN MAINE AT 10 AM. AND WHILE MUCH OF MAINE WAS UNDER CLOUDS...
THERE WAS A GOOD DEAL OF SUNSHINE FROM NEW HAMPSHIRE INTO THE
MOUNTAINS OF WESTERN MAINE. MID MORNING TEMPERATURES WERE MOSTLY IN
THE 60S.
IT APPEARS THE CLOUDS ACROSS MAINE WILL HANG TOUGH THIS AFTERNOON
... WITH SOME LIGHT RAIN PERSISTING IN EASTERN MAINE. SUNSHINE WILL
CONTINUE TO BE MORE ABUNDANT ACROSS NEW HAMPSHIRE AND NORTHWEST
MAINE. TEMPERATURES WILL REACH INTO THE 70S IN MOST COMMUNITIES...
WITH SOME 60S ALONG THE COAST.
A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST TONIGHT... AND CROSS
THE AREA ON SATURDAY. THERE WILL BE SOME CLOUDS TONIGHT... AND
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN COMFORTABLE. DURING THE DAY TOMORROW...
SHOWERS WILL DEVELOP AS THE FRONT PASSES THROUGH. WITH THE CLOUDS
AND SHOWERS... SATURDAY WILL NOT BE A PRISTINE DAY. HOWEVER... IT
WILL NOT BE A WASH OUT EITHER. AND THINGS PROMISE TO GET BETTER FOR
THE LAST PART OF THE LABOR DAY WEEKEND.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN SATURDAY NIGHT AND REMAIN IN CONTROL
FOR THE REST OF THE WEEKEND... AND THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. THERE
MAY BE SOME CLOUDS ACROSS NORTHERN AND EASTERN MAINE ABOUT MID
WEEK... BUT THAT IS ABOUT IT. TEMPERATURES WILL WARM NICELY DURING
THE DAY... AND CONTINUE TO BE COMFORTABLE AT NIGHT. HUMIDITY LEVELS
WILL REMAIN REASONABLE.

HIGH CLOUDINESS COVERED PORTIONS OF NEW HAMPSHIRE DURING THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS...BUT SKIES REMAINED ESSENTIALLY CLEAR ACROSS
MAINE. WINDS WERE LIGHT AND VARIABLE...ALLOWING PATCHY DENSE FOG
TO FORM IN THE USUAL LOCATIONS. AT 300 AM...TEMPERATURES RANGED
FROM A LOW OF 48 DEGREES AT BERLIN AND WHITEFIELD NEW HAMPSHIRE
TO A HIGH OF 60 DEGREES AT AUGUSTA MAINE AND MANCHESTER NEW
HAMPSHIRE.
SPRAWLING HIGH PRESSURE STRETCHING FROM QUEBEC THROUGH THE MID
ATLANTIC STATES WILL PROVIDE ANOTHER DRY DAY FOR NORTHERN NEW
ENGLAND TODAY. AFTER THE EARLY MORNING PATCHY FOG BURNS OFF...
SUNSHINE THROUGH HIGH THIN CLOUDS CAN BE EXPECTED. HIGHS TODAY
WILL REACH INTO THE 70S...WITH A FEW LOWER 80S POSSIBLE IN
SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE. THIS IS JUST ABOUT RIGHT FOR LATE AUGUST
IN MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE.
THE HIGH WILL WEAKEN A BIT TONIGHT AS IT MOVES TO THE EAST.
MEANWHILE...A DEVELOPING OCEAN STORM WELL OFF THE MAINE COAST WILL
TOSS SOME CLOUDS BACK TOWARD THE REGION. HOWEVER...RAIN SHOWERS
SHOULD REMAIN OFFSHORE TONIGHT. PATCHY FOG CAN BE EXPECTED ONCE
AGAIN AS LOW DIP BACK INTO THE 40S AND 50S.
THE OFFSHORE LOW WILL MAKE ITS CLOSEST APPROACH FRIDAY MORNING...
AND A FEW RAIN SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS CENTRAL AND EASTERN
MAINE DURING THAT TIME. ELSEWHERE...EXPECT CLOUDS IN THE MORNING
TO YIELD TO BREAKS OF SUNSHINE IN THE AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY
ACROSS NEW HAMPSHIRE AND WESTERN MAINE. HIGHS FRIDAY WILL CLIMB
BACK INTO THE 70S...WITH THE COOLEST READINGS NEAR THE COAST...DUE
TO AN ONSHORE FLOW.
A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND FROM THE WEST LATE
FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY. CLOUDS WILL FILL BACK IN FRIDAY NIGHT
AHEAD OF THE FRONT...AND A FEW RAIN SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE OVER THE

50S.
THE COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY CROSS THE REGION SATURDAY. SCATTERED
RAIN SHOWERS IN THE MORNING WILL BE FOLLOWED BY SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...AT THIS TIME IT DOES NOT
LOOK LIKE SATURDAY WILL BE A WASHOUT. SOUTHWEST WINDS AHEAD OF THE
FRONT WILL HELP BOOST TEMPERATURES BACK INTO THE 70S TO NEAR 80
DEGREES.
AS THE FRONT MOVES OFFSHORE SATURDAY EVENING...IT WILL TAKE THE
LAST OF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH IT. BEHIND THE
FRONT...HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING EAST WILL BRING DRIER CONDITIONS
FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE LABOR DAY WEEKEND.
