Area Discussion for - Caribou, ME
(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus61 kcar 261308 afdcar area forecast discussion national weather service caribou me 908 am edt Sun may 26 2019 Synopsis A warm front is crossing the area this morning, and will be followed by a cold front late today. A secondary cold front will cross the area Monday followed by high pressure on Tuesday. Near term through tonight 915 am update... radar was showing back edge of rain moving across eastern washington county. Still seeing some light rain drizzle around the region per the latest obs. This is being supported by the latest soundings showing llvl moisture and sse wind through 3 kft W dry air above 850 mbs. Some patchy fog around as well and decided to add this in for this update for the next few hrs. Hrly temps adjusted to match the latest obs. Otherwise, forecast looks to be on track W the threat for some tstms this afternoon as advertised by the latest rap and hrrr. Area of concern will be across the piscataquis and penobscot valley. Previous discussion... the rain will taper off from west to east by mid-morning. However, with a fairly moist onshore flow in place, don't expect much if any clearing today except perhaps north west of the mountains into the north woods. Attention then turns to afternoon convection as a cold front approaches from the west. West of bangor and into quebec there will be a fair amount of CAPE up to about 1000 j kg with surface-based convection firing just ahead of the cold front. Storms move into moosehead lake region around midday then progress east early and mid afternoon. However, while the storms will be surface-based around moosehead lake, as they move east into the more stable marine layer, they will weaken. They could hold together to places like bangor and caribou, but will fall apart as they head further east toward eastport. Although most places will get wet from the showers and storms this afternoon, some places may stay dry from the hit and miss convection, and it doesn't look like an all-afternoon event for those with outdoor plans. Cold front moving through late afternoon and evening will gradually dry things out with some clearing late in the night. Short term Monday through Tuesday night A cold front will approach from the northwest early in the day on Monday and move across the region during the afternoon. This |
system is expected to produce some showers across the area as it moves through. High pressure will build in behind the cold front Monday night and crest over the region early Tuesday. Expect mostly sunny conditions on Tuesday. Clouds are expected to increase Tuesday night as a warm front approaches with rain overspreading the region ahead of the warm front. Long term Wednesday through Saturday Rain is expected on Wednesday and Thursday as an area of low pressure moves from west to east along the warm front. Another cold front is then expected to move across the area on Friday with more showers expected. High pressure is then expected to build in from the west on Friday. Aviation 13z Sunday through Thursday Near term: generally ifr in low clouds and rain as of 6am. Though the steadier rain is tapering off from west to east, still will only be slow improvement to ceilings through the morning, with ifr slowly improving to MVFR late morning into early afternoon except perhapsVFR north west of the mountains including places like kgnr. Possibility of storms in the early to mid afternoon, with the best shot being kgnr and kbgr. Improving toVFR this evening and overnight as cold front moves through and atmosphere dries out. Short term:VFR conditions are expected on Monday and Tuesday. MVFR ifr conditions are then expected Tuesday night through Thursday. Marine Near term: small craft advisory in effect this morning with a warm front moving through. Looks very marginal with conditions only barely reaching small craft levels, then improving back below small craft this afternoon and tonight. Short term: have used the NAM to initialize winds however will reduce model winds by 15 percent due to cold sea surface temperatures (mid 40s). Expect southerly wind wave becoming northwesterly, is expected to be the primary wave system on Monday. Southerly wind wave will develop again on Tuesday. A southeasterly fetch will develop across the gulf of maine on Wednesday. Car watches warnings advisories Me... None. Marine... Small craft advisory until noon edt today for anz050-051. Near term...

It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
