Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Caribou ME Issued by National Weather Service Gray ME 605 AM EDT Sat Oct 10 2026
WHAT HAS CHANGED
Issued a frost advisory for tonight for downeast zones. Also added a little more wintry precipitation to northern zones for Tue/Tue night.
KEY MESSAGES
1) After a fair weather and breezy day today, frost is likely tonight. Warm temperatures and breezy winds Sunday before the next rain chances early next week.
DISCUSSION
KEY MESSAGE 1 DESCRIPTION...
High pressure builds over the region today and tonight before moving offshore Sunday. The remnants of Hurricane Isaias lift into the OH Valley on Sunday with moisture funneling up into southern areas late Sunday night into Monday morning.
Radiational cooling tonight will result in frost formation. The remaining zones still in season are the Midcoast zones and a frost advisory has been issued.
Breezy southwest winds will also funnel warm temperatures into the area Sunday into Monday. Highs will top out in the 60s both days, some 3-8 degrees above normal.
As the system moves off the southern New England coast, it could bring a chance of showers for the Downeast coast late Sunday night into Monday. Rain chances could decrease if the system stays further south, though there is still a good amount of uncertainty at this time. A separate low pressure develops over the Great Lakes Monday night as a trough deepens behind the departing tropical remnants. This will bring a chance of rain early-mid next week. Some wintry precipitation will be possible in the far north on Tuesday, but confidence is low.
