SYNOPSIS
Upper disturbance drifts and stalls over the Maritimes while surface high pressure builds in this weekend. A weak system tracks south of Maine early week with high pressure remaining overhead into midweek. High pressure drifts southeast of the Gulf of Maine into Thursday as a storm system tracks into the Great Lakes.

NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/
We are on the boundary of changing airmass today across Maine with an upper disturbance over the Maritimes stalling near Nova Scotia due to North Atlantic blocking (-NAO). 925mb temps warming into the +12C to +15C range across our western CWA with +9C to +10C in eastern areas. Expecting mostly sunny skies across much of the CWA except in eastern areas near New Brunswick and Downeast where the moisture around the 500mb low will bring skies to be more partly sunny. Warmest temps will be across the western and northern zones with upper 60s to low 70s.
In Washington County from the coast northward to Danforth will be the cooler spots in the mid to upper 60s. Additionally, winds along the shoreline today will shift in the afternoon to be a weak sea breeze. Given temperatures near 70F or slightly warmer at the request of the United States Coast Guard we have put a Beach Hazard Statement up for the messaging of cold water safety, additionally over inland areas an SPS is out for cold water safety. Except at the shore the winds across the area are northerly generally 5-10mph with gusts at times up to 20mph.

Tonight, surface high pressure drifts over western New England with the 500mb ridge continuing to be squeezed between the Maritime low and a shortwave entering the eastern Great Lakes.
Another clear and calm night tonight with temperatures falling back into the low to mid 40s except a few 38-39F readings in the North Woods cold spots.

SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/
High pressure will begin to slowly work into the area during the day on Sunday. As this ridge of high pressure slowly approaches, a deep low pressure system the Canadian Maritimes will slowly retrograde towards Maine from the east. The trend has been for the high pressure ridge to be slow enough to establish in the forecast area, that a 700mb vort max will be able to push westward in to the area late Sunday into Sunday night. High pressure will keep skies clear on Sunday, while cloud cover increases into Sunday night as the vort max enters the area, followed by an increased chance for light rain showers into the day on Monday.

The area of vorticity will exit the area into Monday night as the ridge of high pressure shifts further east and over our forecast area. With this shift, the chance for rain will also decrease into the night, and skies will begin to slowly clear.

Temperatures will be slightly above average through the short term, with highs in the mid to upper 70s and lows in the lower 50s. With light winds under partly to mostly clear skies, a daily sea breeze is expected along the coast, which will keep high temperatures along the immediate coast a bit cooler than the Interior Downeast region.

LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/
High pressure will continue into the middle of the upcoming week, keeping skies partly to mostly clear. And as the same air mass as described in the short term remains overhead, temperatures will persist slightly above normal through the middle of the week. The next chance for measurable rainfall will approach in the form of a cold front moving towards the area from the west on Friday. There is still some uncertainty in storm track and especially in timing, with potential for this feature to not arrive until the upcoming weekend. That said, there is consistency across global models in the existence of this low pressure system, and that it may tap into the Gulf of Mexico as a moisture source, drawing moisture to support measurable rainfall into our forecast area at the end of the week.

AVIATION /07Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/
NEAR TERM: VFR through tonight. N winds 5-15kt. BHB will shift E-SE this afternoon with a sea breeze. Tonight winds become calm.

SHORT TERM: Sunday - Wednesday: Generally VFR conditions across all terminals, with light winds generally out of the north around 5 kts Sunday and Monday, becoming more southerly by Wednesday.
Coastal terminals could see a shift to southerly winds each afternoon with a sea breeze.



MARINE
NEAR TERM: Winds/seas remain below SCA conditions through tonight. N-NE winds this morning less than 15kt shift E-SE this afternoon before becoming W tonight less than 10kt. Seas 1-2ft today with a period of 7 seconds. Seas subsiding to 1ft or less on the intra-coastal waters tonight and 1-2ft on the coastal waters. Wave periods remain around 7 seconds. Sea surface temperatures in the mid to upper 40s extend from the Downeast coast out 25nm and east to the Hague Line including Passamaquoddy Bay.

SHORT TERM: Winds and seas are expected to remain below small craft advisory levels Sunday through Wednesday, with winds light and variable and seas around 1 to 2 ft.
