Synopsis:
It’s a much more optimistic forecast for today. The threat of flash flooding has significantly diminished. The ingredients didn’t come together for heavy rain. Some areas North and East of the City had downpours, but this region will also dry out during the day. A cool front will move through the region this afternoon. A mix of clouds and some sun is expected. Spotty showers and storms can’t be ruled out but the majority of the afternoon will be dry.
Thursday through Saturday will feature high pressure moving in from the Northwest. This will supply the region with a refreshing air mass. For those waiting on Fall-like weather you’ll be smiling.
Readings will warm by Sunday with a Southerly flow ahead of the next front.
Hurricane Lee continues to move Northwest in the Atlantic. The forecast models continue to keep this storm offshore of the Eastern seaboard until the storm reaches Maine’s latitude. Landfall is possible in Down East Maine Saturday night. High surf, beach erosion and rip currents can be expected in our region late week into the weekend.
Stay tuned.
Keep it here for a no nonsense, no hype forecast.
