Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Caribou ME 1008 PM EST Mon Jan 27 2020

SYNOPSIS. A cold front will cross the area tonight. Weak high pressure builds over the area Tuesday. Another cold front crosses the area Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. High pressure crosses the region later Wednesday through early Saturday. Low pressure will track southeast of the region Saturday night.

NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/. 1005 pm update . Cdfnt is now thru Houlton and dropping south and lkly to be off the coast bfr daybreak. Clds are hanging tough acrs the area tonight with pcldy conds expected along coastal areas late tonight. Temps look to be on track with current fcst so just a quick update to ingest latest obs into the grids.

Prev discussion blo . Radar, satellite, and surface observations this afternoon show an area of low pressure centered over the eastern tip of the Gaspe Peninsula. Bands of clouds and precipitation extend over much of the CWA, although these bands are not nearly as organized or strong as they were earlier due to drier air and diminishing strength of forcing. A weak mid-level disturbance and associated area of PVA are moving from northwest to southeast and is currently over Downeast Maine, where increasing convective cloud cover and perhaps some isolated light rain, snow, or graupel showers are possible this evening depending on temperatures. To the north, flurries and light snow showers will continue late this afternoon before tapering off tonight.

A cold front will arrive from nearly due north tonight. The front is forecast to reach the northern border by around 0z this evening and the coast by around 12z Tuesday. Weak overrunning and lingering low level moisture will lead to a broken to overcast deck of stratocumulus behind the front. This cloud cover and significantly cooler 925mb temperatures will lower max temperatures by about 10 degrees over their observed values today. Scattered flurries are possible through the early afternoon Tuesday depending on the strength of the overrunning, but measurable precipitation is unlikely and confidence was not high enough to include flurries at this time. Gradual clearing is expected later Tuesday afternoon into Tuesday evening.

SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/. A cold front will move south across the region Tuesday night through early Wednesday. Expect partly cloudy skies across northern areas Tuesday night. Across Downeast areas, expect partly cloudy skies early then decreasing overnight. Clouds decrease across northern areas Wednesday, with mostly clear skies Downeast. High pressure builds across the region Wednesday night through Thursday with mostly clear skies. Near normal, to slightly below normal, level temperatures are expected Wednesday/Thursday.

LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/. High pressure will cross the region Thursday night through early Saturday, then exit across the Maritimes with generally mostly clear skies. Significant uncertainty still exists regarding potential low pressure Saturday night into Sunday. Current indications suggest strong low pressure tracking south of the Gulf of Maine Saturday night, then moving east of Nova Scotia Sunday. This track would keep the most significant impacts south and east of the forecast area. However, uncertainty regarding the phasing of northern and southern stream energy could alter the track. The eventual track and intensity of the low will ultimately determine precipitation chances, types and amounts. The low should exit toward Newfoundland Monday, with high pressure building toward the region late. Near normal, to slightly above normal, level temperatures are expected Friday/Saturday. Temperatures Sunday/Monday will be dependent on the eventual track of low pressure.

AVIATION /03Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/. NEAR TERM: Variable conditions occurring acrs the terminals tonight. Expect MVFR at KFVE with VFR and ocnl MVFR cigs elsewhere acrs northern terminals. Downeast terminals likely to be VFR next 24 hours.

SHORT TERM: Tuesday night through Wednesday . Occasional MVFR conditions possible across the north and mountains through early Wednesday. Otherwise, VFR. North to northwest winds gusting up to 25 mph Wednesday.

Wednesday night through Saturday . VFR. Uncertainty Saturday night dependent on the eventual track of low pressure.

MARINE. NEAR TERM: Winds and seas will remain below SCA criteria through Tuesday with offshore flow.

SHORT TERM: Small craft advisory conditions expected Tuesday night into early Thursday. Light freezing spray possible Tuesday night into early Wednesday.

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.
