Quiet weather continues into tonight, temperatures warm up Sunday

BANGOR, Maine (WABI) - Tonight, we remain dry with partly cloudy to mostly clear skies. Overnight low temperatures drop into the teens and 20′s. Quiet weather continues into Sunday, as high pressure slips off over the Atlantic. This brings slightly warmer temperatures and mostly sunny skies. High temperatures warm into the mid to upper 30′s and just touching 40 DownEast. Clouds begin to increase through the evening hours Sunday.

The beginning of the work week also looks to remain pretty quiet weather-wise. A strong low-pressure system impacting the Midatlantic on Sunday, scoots off the coast and pushes out to sea and stays to the south of the Gulf of Maine on Monday. However, some of those clouds do make their way into our region on Monday, making for partly cloudy to mostly cloudy skies. High temperatures on Monday reach the 20′s and 30′s, with winds out of the northeast at around 5-10 mph. Tuesday a weak low-pressure system dissipates to the north of the state. This brings mostly cloudy skies and the chance for some scattered snow showers in the morning and afternoon. High temperatures on Tuesday reach the upper 20′s and low 30′s. Wednesday, a weak low-pressure system moves in over the Great Lakes region sending in a warm front through the region. As that warm front passes through it has the potential to bring in some light isolated rain and snow showers. Highs on Wednesday reach the upper 30′s and lower 40′s. Temperatures will continue to rise towards the end of the week, possibly breaking 50° by Thursday. Our next weather maker looks to move in late Thursday and into Friday. A strong area of low pressure is forecast to cross over the Great Lakes putting us on the warm side of the system. This could provide another chance for mostly rain showers across the state with some wintry mix across far northern Maine. We’ll continue to update that threat as we get closer and more data becomes available.
