Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Gray ME 1125 AM EDT Mon Aug 10 2020

SYNOPSIS. Warmer and increasingly humid air will spread across the area through the first half of this work week with dangerous heat indices possible at some locations. Along with the building humidity will come the chance of a few showers and thunderstorms from time to time. A cold front will cross the area late Wednesday night and early Thursday . with a bit less heat and humidity to follow for Friday and the start of next weekend.

NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/. 1125am Update . Another update to temperatures to match the latest observations and adjust max temperatures a bit. The rest of the forecast continues to be on track.

940am Update . Made some minor adjustments to PoPs and weather grids through the early afternoon. Also matched temperatures to the latest observations; still expecting maximum heat indices around 95 degrees this afternoon as temperatures rise into the lower to mid 90s. The rest of the going forecast looks to be on track.

Update . Have updated the forecast based on latest mesoscale models and current conditions. Widely scattered to scattered showers will continue today as a weak disturbance gradually exits the region. Have made minor adjustments to pops based on latest radar imagery with the precipitation crossing through central areas. Minor adjustments made to winds based on latest satellite imagery as well as temperatures and dew points.

Prev Disc . The heat and humidity begins to build today in response to a large east coast ridge and a southwesterly flow through a deep layer. H8 temperatures reach about +17C over some areas by later today. This is a borderline heat advisory criteria for portions of southern New Hampshire. However, some cloudiness from an exiting short wave and from upstream convection may bring clouds into the region from time to time today. This may limit high temperatures from the mid 80s to around 90 over southern areas. Nevertheless, this is still hot and humid with heat indices approaching 95 degrees this afternoon.

There will be isolated to scattered shower activity today. This will be mainly away from the coast where an onshore breeze will keep temperatures slightly cooler than the interior providing a more stable atmospheric profile.

SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/. Any showers will weaken and dissipate this evening across the region. Patchy fog will develop once again across the interior valleys.

The hottest day of the week will likely be on Tuesday as H8 readings exceed +18C. Heat indices may exceed 100 degrees at this time over interior southwest Maine and southern New Hampshire. Heat indices in the 90s will occur in all areas but the mountains. The coolest locations will be in the Midcoast region where an onshore flow off the Gulf of Maine will knock down temperatures to the lower to mid 80s.

There will once again be isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms, but forcing will be weak during the day.

LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/. A shortwave trough lifting through far northern Quebec on Tuesday will send a cold front toward our area. It stalls a bit as it arrives Tuesday night into Wednesday, possibly serving as a focusing mechanism for showers and thunderstorms especially Wednesday afternoon. The heat continues, but with a bit cooler temperatures and heat index values topping out at around 95 degrees in the afternoon. The next trough dropping southeast out of Hudson Bay will give the front another shove further southward at least into southern New England for Thursday. This will bring rain chances to an end as well as some more seasonable temperatures.

Low pressure forms near the Mid Atlantic coast this weekend, likely along that slow moving frontal boundary. With little steering flow it's unclear where it will eventually track. The GFS is the only model at this point that drifts this far enough north to bring rain to our area this weekend, while the others drift it primarily to the east into the Atlantic. The next upper trough arrives from the west early next week.

AVIATION /16Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/. Short Term . Mainly VFR conditions today, however isolated thunderstorms may produce brief periods of IFR conditions, mainly in the north. VFR tonight, but areas of valley fog will reduce ceilings and visibilities during the late night period. VFR on Tuesday, lowering to IFR conditions in scattered showers and storms.

Long Term . A slow moving front will bring a chance of showers and thunderstorms especially Wednesday afternoon. Otherwise VFR conditions should prevail.

MARINE. Short Term . Winds and seas will remain below SCA thresholds for the near/short term portion of the forecast. Patchy fog is possible tonight over portions of the waters.

Long Term . Light winds expected over the waters as a slow moving cold front eventually crosses from the north by Thursday.

GYX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES. ME . None. NH . None. MARINE . None.

NEAR TERM . Watson SHORT TERM . Cannon LONG TERM . Kimble

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.

In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
