Marine Weather and Tides
Version 3.4 |
10/9/2019 Updated the Marine Zones. 9/4/2019 Fixed the weather maps due to NOAA moving them. 7/25/2019 New feature in the Airports section gives a link to 5 minute updates for data reports. 6/2/2019. Many thanks to a user for reporting an error on one of the Edit pages. The switch to PHP 7.2 caused many pages that previously worked to quit working. I fixed many but I still depend on users to report ones I missed. Please report errors HERE or send an email to me at L-36.com. Allen |

(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus61 kcar 182143 afdcar area forecast discussion national weather service caribou me 543 pm edt Fri oct 18 2019 Synopsis High pressure builds across the region Saturday into Monday. Low pressure will cross the region later Tuesday into Wednesday. Near term through Saturday 540 pm update: based on latest radar ref imagery, we bumped up pops ovr cntr and interior downeast ptns of the fa for more of a mention of isold to sct rn shwrs into the eve hrs. A weak s WV alf currently crossing the fa in a NW flow alf regime is the cause of these shwrs. Otherwise, fcst hrly cld cvr, temps, and dwpts were updated into the ovrngt hrs based on trends from latest Sat imagery and sfc obs, with no chgs needed to fcst ovrngt low temps attm. Prev disc: in a northwesterly flow on the east side of surface high pressure, 850-925mb moisture will remain prevalent through most of Saturday. The resultant cloud cover and the winds will keep tonight's lows from falling below the upper 30s to lower 40s. There will be some downsloping erosion of the cloud cover tonight into Saturday for southern piscataquis penobscot counties as well as hancock county. A weak shortwave propagating southward in the northwesterly upper level flow could squeeze out isolated showers in northern zones tonight, but the main effect will be the introduction of cooler 850mb temps, dropping towards -5c in aroostook county by Saturday morning. This colder air aloft, and cloud cover under a strengthening subsidence inversion, will ensure Saturday's highs are no higher than today. Short term Saturday night through Monday High pressure will build across the region Saturday night into Monday. Expect partly cloudy skies north early Saturday night then decreasing overnight, with mostly clear skies downeast. Expect mostly sunny skies across the region Sunday, then partly cloudy mostly clear skies Sunday night through Monday. Near normal, to slightly above normal, level temperatures are expected Sunday Monday. Long term Monday night through Friday High pressure begins to exit east across the maritimes Monday |
night with mostly clear skies. A cold occluded front will approach from the west Tuesday into Wednesday. A coastal low is expected to develop along the front and lift north across the region with rain and gusty winds. However, timing differences still exist regarding whether the major impacts with the system occur Tuesday into Wednesday or Wednesday into Thursday. High pressure should build across the region in the wake of the system later Thursday into Friday. An approaching frontal boundary could bring a chance of showers later Friday. Near normal, to slightly above normal, level temperatures are expected Tuesday through Friday. Aviation 22z Friday through Wednesday Near term: MVFR CIGS will be persistent north of a gnr to hul line through late Saturday. South of that line, conditions will be predominantlyVFR. Gusty northwest winds will continue through the period. Short term: Saturday night through Monday night...VFR. Tuesday through Wednesday... Conditions dependent on the eventual timing of a coastal low, which remains uncertain at this time. Rain and gusty winds should accompany the low. Marine Near term: the small craft advisory will remain in effect into Saturday morning as advertised. It's possible that it will need to be extended a couple of hours, but will not make that change at this point. Northwest winds gusting to 25 to 30 kt will continue through the period. In terms of seas, the long period south swell will continue to diminish late this afternoon into the evening and the primary wave group will transition to a lower, shorter period wind-driven variety. Short term: winds seas will remain below small craft advisory levels Saturday night through Monday. Car watches warnings advisories Me... None. Marine...

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. |
