.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
High pressure crosses the region today through tonight, then
begins to exit across the Maritimes Saturday. Expect mostly
clear skies today through tonight. Patchy, mostly river valley,
fog is also possible later tonight. Patchy frost is also
possible later tonight across northern portions of the forecast
area. An upper level disturbance will cross the region Saturday
with partly sunny skies. Some model guidance also indicates the
possibility of isolated showers with the disturbance. However,
with dry low levels did not yet have enough confidence to
include showers in the forecast. High temperatures today will
range from the mid 60s north, to around 70 to the lower 70s
Downeast. Low temperatures across northern areas tonight will
generally range from the mid 30s to around 40. However, the
normally coldest areas could fall to around freezing. Low
temperatures Downeast will range from the lower to mid 40s. High
temperatures Saturday will range from the mid to upper 60s
north, to around 70 Downeast.
&&
.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
Upper level low pressure dropping south from Eastern Canada will
begin to approach Saturday night as high pressure continues to our
south. The return flow behind high pressure will combined with a bit
of moisture working in from the upper trough to bring a partly
cloudy night Saturday night with lows in the 40s.
The upper low from Canada will pull a cold front through Sunday
morning which may carry enough moisture to produce some scattered
showers, mainly across the north. This will be followed by some
clearing and a light gusty northwesterly breeze Sunday afternoon
with high pressure building down from the north. Sunday night will
then be clear and cool with lows from the low 40s north to near 50
Downeast.
High pressure will build over the area Monday bringing a mostly
sunny and seasonable day with highs ranging from near 70 north to
the low to mid 70s Downeast.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
High pressure will drop south of the area Monday night into Tuesday.
A light return flow behind the high on Tuesday will bring some
moderation in temperatures under a mostly sunny sky. Highs Tuesday
should reach the mid 70s across the area.
Reinforcing high pressure will drop south from Quebec on Wednesday
bringing a continuation of dry weather and sunshine. This new high
will slide south of the area Thursday as weak upper ridging remains
over the area. This will bring a continuation of mild weather. Highs
Wednesday and again Thursday will make a run for the mid 70s.
Another cold front will come through on Friday. This one will again
be dry as yet another reinforcing high drops in from Eastern Canada.
Basically, the long range pattern next week favors upper ridging to
our west with dry upper waves and occasional reinforcing highs
dropping down from the north. Seasonable to slightly above normal
temperatures here on the eastern edge of the ridge will be with us
much of next week.
