Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Gray ME 940 AM EDT Sun Jun 2 2024

SYNOPSIS
High pressure will continue to be nearby the next several days with temperatures remaining above seasonal norms and winds diminishing. Seabreezes expected on Monday. High pressure will remain overhead early next week...with an increasing marine influence causing temperatures to fall closer to normal for early June. The next chance for widespread rainfall does not arrive until about Thursday.

NEAR TERM /TODAY/

940 AM Update...The forecast remains in good shape with only the needed to match up the temp/dewpoint forecast with current observations.

615 AM Update...Little change to the going forecast for this morning other than to add patchy fog to some low lying areas through about 12z.

Previously...

High pressure ridging overhead today will aid in another warm day today, probably the warmest of the next several days as temperatures rise well into the upper 70s to mid 80s depending on location. In addition, the seabreeze doesn't look to be as strong today with a lee side trough setting up on the coastal plain keeping strong enough opposing flow going late into the day. The skies won't be totally sunny today with a few BKN periods possible but dry weather continues to be expected.

SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/
Outside of some high cloudiness...a mostly clear and calm night is expected. Dewpoints will be higher which will yield lows another step higher than previous nights, likely reaching the mid 40s in the coolest northern valleys...but 50s elsewhere.

Another nice day on Monday but not as warm. A trough swinging southward through the Maritimes will aid in SFC high pressure strengthening in the Gulf of Maine which will portend to an easterly low level flow. Therefore we expected temperatures to cool off faster in the afternoon on the coastal plain.

LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/
No significant changes to the long term to what has been advertised the past few days. An upper level ridge to our west will shield the area from any significant precipitation through late next week before a cold front and an upper level low push east by next weekend.

In the dailies: Low pressure east of Nova Scotia will pivot a trough around it. This will halt the northward movement of the warm front and by Tuesday result in a more NE flow. The NE flow on Tuesday will cool temperatures some, especially along coastal areas as well as the higher elevations of the interior.
Wednesday into Thursday the upper level ridge will move over the area. This will continue mainly dry weather with seasonable temperatures. Thursday Afternoon through Friday the ridge moves east of the area at which point scattered showers will start to develop...mainly over NH at first then moving east into Maine.
By Saturday the cutoff low that has been slowly drifting east from southern Canada will get close enough to place the region under a cyclonic flow aloft which should enhance the shower potential as we head into next weekend.

Included patchy marine fog along the midcoast Monday Night and Tuesday Night. Added patchy fog over land late each night Wednesday Night through Friday Night as the airmass moistens and showers start to develop.

AVIATION /14Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/
Short Term...West-Southwest winds 5-10kts for the day today with sea-breezes again developing at the immediate coast. VFR expected.

Long Term...

Generally Expect VFR to MVFR throughout the Tue-Wed period.
Areas of IFR possible beyond the long term aviation portion of the forecast as we head into Thursday and Friday.

MARINE
Short Term...Onshore flow developing with seabreeze this afternoon and Monday afternoon. Otherwise, winds and seas remain below SCA thresholds.

Long Term...Wind and waves to remain below SCA conditions through the extended forecast period. Patchy fog mainly at night starting Monday Night.

GYX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES
ME...Beach Hazards Statement until 8 PM EDT this evening for MEZ023>028.
NH...Beach Hazards Statement until 8 PM EDT this evening for NHZ014.
