Drying out tonight, with sunshine returning Monday

BANGOR, Maine (WABI) - The bulk of the precipitation has tapered off, but still could see some lingering rain through the Bangor region and DownEast this evening with some lingering snow showers up north. Tonight, we’ll continue to dry out with partly cloudy to mostly cloudy skies, then clearing overnight. Low temperatures drop into the 20′s north and 30′s Downeast. Wind will be westerly at around 5-10 mph.

Monday morning we’ll wake up to some sunshine, especially closer to Bangor and Downeast. We stay dry with partly cloudy skies. High temperatures on Monday reach the lower 40′s north to mid to upper 40′s Downeast. Then, another week low pressure system looks to pass to the south of the state Monday. This system could bring some light rain showers across southern Maine Monday night, with just clouds through Bangor and northern Maine. Tuesday, skies will be cloudy with the chance for some isolated rain and snow showers, mainly confined to northern Maine, but a few flakes and raindrops could make their way Downeast. Wednesday will be quiet weather wise with partly cloudy skies. A cold front moves in overnight Wednesday into Thursday. The cold front will bring in the chance for some snow showers early Thursday morning. Friday we start off dry with partly cloudy to mostly sunny skies. Then as our next system moves in for the weekend, there could be some scattered rain and snow showers Friday night.

Our next system looks to move in next weekend. Right now, it looks like a low-pressure system will cut over the Great Lakes and cross over Maine Saturday. This looks like it will bring in mostly rain across the state along with some gusty winds. We’ll continue to monitor and update that threat as we get closer.

TONIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy skies. Low temperatures drop in between 25-36. Winds W 5-10 mph.

MONDAY: Partly to mostly cloudy. Highs reach the lower 40′s north and mid to upper 40′s Downeast.

TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy, highs reach the 30′s and 40′s.

WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy, highs reach the 30′s and 40′s.

THURSDAY: AM snow showers, highs reach the upper 30′s to lower 40′s.
