NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAY MAINE
845 PM EST SAT NOV 8 2008
CLOUDS AND FOG REMAINED ENTRENCHED ACROSS MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE
INTO THE EVENING HOURS. THE LIGHT RAIN THAT DEVELOPED ACROSS
SOUTHWEST NEW HAMPSHIRE ABOUT MIDDAY... SPREAD SLOWLY NORTH AND EAST
INTO THE MOUNTAINS AND FOOTHILLS OF WESTERN MAINE. MEANWHILE... A
LARGER AREA OF HEAVIER RAIN MOVED INTO SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND
SOUTHWESTERN MAINE DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE EVENING.
TEMPERATURES PEAKED IN THE MID AND UPPER 40S ACROSS NORTHERN
MAINE... WITH 50S ACROSS THE REST OF THE STATE. NEW HAMPSHIRE TOWNS
WERE A BIT MILDER... WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 50S TO MID 60S. BY 9
PM... TEMPERATURES HAD DROPPED A FEW DEGREES FROM THE DAYTIME HIGHS.
THE RAIN OVER NEW HAMPSHIRE AND NORTHWESTERN MAINE WAS OCCURRING
IN ADVANCE OF A COLD FRONT THAT WAS JUST ENTERING WESTERN NEW
ENGLAND AT 8 PM. THE RAIN WILL CONTINUE TONIGHT AS THE FRONT EDGES
SLOWLY THROUGH NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. DESPITE THE PASSAGE OF THE COLD
FRONT... TEMPERATURES WILL NOT DROP MUCH OVERNIGHT. ON SUNDAY...
SOMEWHAT DRIER AIR WILL BE ARRIVING. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR SOME
SUNSHINE... ESPECIALLY ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AREAS. HOWEVER...
SHOWERS WILL LINGER ACROSS NORTHERN AND MOUNTAINS SECTIONS. EVEN
AFTER THE FRONT IS WELL EAST OF THE AREA... A STRONG UPPER LEVEL
SYSTEM WILL REMAIN TO OUR WEST. A SECONDARY COLD FRONT WILL ALSO BE
MOVING OUR WAY. SO CLOUDS AND SHOWERS WILL LINGER SUNDAY NIGHT AND
MONDAY. AS COLDER AIR ARRIVES... SOME OF THESE SHOWERS WILL CHANGE
TO SNOW. THERE WILL BE SOME LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS
ON MONDAY.
ON TUESDAY... HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE IN FROM THE WEST. WHILE
AREAS SOUTH AND EAST OF THE MOUNTAINS WILL SEE SOME SUNSHINE AS WE
HEAD INTO MID WEEK... CLOUDS WILL REMAIN A BIG PART OF THE FORECAST
OVER THE NORTH AND IN MOUNTAINS.
THURSDAY WILL BRING ABOUT ANOTHER TRANSITION IN OUR WEATHER. THE
HIGH PRESSURE CENTER WILL MOVE OFFSHORE AS LOW PRESSURE BEGINS TO
DEVELOP IN THE GULF COAST REGION. MOISTURE WILL FLOW NORTH ONCE
AGAIN... WITH RAIN OR SNOW DEVELOPING THURSDAY NIGHT. PERIODS OF
PRECIPITATION WILL CONTINUE RIGHT INTO THE WEEKEND... WITH ANY SNOW
CHANGING TO RAIN AS THE AIR SLOWLY WARMS.

400 PM EST SAT NOV 8 2008
THERE WAS PRECIOUS LITTLE SUNSHINE ACROSS MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE
SATURDAY AS OUR DISMAL EARLY NOVEMBER WEATHER CONTINUED. CLOUDS...
DRIZZLE AND LOCALLY DENSE FOG DOMINATED THE LANDSCAPE. A STEADIER
RAIN ENTERED SOUTHWEST NEW HAMPSHIRE AROUND LUNCHTIME... AND MOVED
SLOWLY NORTHEAST DURING THE AFTERNOON. BY MID AFTERNOON SOME OF THIS
MORE PERSISTENT RAIN HAD REACHED WESTERN MAINE. TEMPERATURES RANGED
FROM THE 40S ACROSS NORTHERN MAINE... TO THE 50S IN MOST OTHER
PLACES. A FEW NEW HAMPSHIRE TOWNS MANAGED TO REACH THE LOWER 60S. AN
ONSHORE BREEZE ADDED TO THE CHILL IN MANY LOCATIONS.
THE STEADIER RAIN WAS OCCURRING IN ADVANCE OF A COLD FRONT
SITUATED OVER NEW YORK STATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON. THE RAIN WILL
CONTINUE TONIGHT AS THE FRONT EDGES SLOWLY PAST NORTHERN NEW
ENGLAND. DESPITE THE PASSAGE OF THE COLD FRONT... TEMPERATURES WILL
NOT DROP MUCH OVERNIGHT. SOMEWHAT DRIER AIR WILL ARRIVE ON SUNDAY...
ALLOWING FOR SOME SUNSHINE... ESPECIALLY ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN
AREAS. HOWEVER... SHOWERS WILL LINGER ACROSS NORTHERN AND MOUNTAINS
SECTIONS. A STRONG UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM WILL REMAIN TO OUR WEST... AND
A SECONDARY COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH... SO THE CLOUDS AND
SHOWERS WILL LINGER SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY. THEN... AS COLDER AIR
ARRIVES... SOME OF THESE SHOWERS WILL CHANGE TO SNOW. THERE WILL BE
SOME LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS ON MONDAY.
ON TUESDAY... HIGH PRESSURE WILL BEGIN TO MOVE IN FROM THE WEST.
DESPITE THE ARRIVAL OF THIS FAIR WEATHER SYSTEM... CLOUDS WILL
REMAIN A BIG PART OF OUR FORECAST OVER THE NORTH AND MOUNTAINS RIGHT
INTO MID WEEK. CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN LOCATIONS SHOULD BENEFIT MORE
FROM THE DRY HIGH PRESSURE CENTER.
THURSDAYS WEATHER WILL FEATURE ANOTHER TRANSITION. THE HIGH
PRESSURE CENTER WILL MOVE OFFSHORE AS LOW PRESSURE BEGINS TO DEVELOP
IN THE GULF COAST REGION. MOISTURE WILL BEGIN TO FLOW NORTH ONCE
AGAIN... WITH SOME RAIN OR SNOW THURSDAY NIGHT. PERIODS OF
PRECIPITATION WILL CONTINUE RIGHT INTO THE WEEKEND... WITH ANY SNOW
CHANGING TO RAIN AS THE AIR SLOWLY WARMS.

1045 AM EST SAT NOV 8 2008
UGLY NOVEMBER WEATHER CONTINUED ACROSS OUR REGION THIS MORNING...
WITH DISMAL VISIBILITY AND AREAS OF DRIZZLE. AT LEAST WE ARE STILL
ENJOYING WARMER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES... ESPECIALLY WITH
OVERNIGHT LOWS REFUSED TO COOL BELOW THE MID 50S IN SOME OF THE
SOUTHERNMOST SPOTS. LOWS DID COOL IN MAINE`S NORTH COUNTRY... WITH
A FEW REPORTS DIPPING TO THE UPPER 30S. THAT WAS STILL OVER 10
DEGREES WARMER THAN USUAL AT THIS TIME OFF YEAR.
THE FOG PERSISTED INTO MIDMORNING ACROSS MOST AREAS AND WAS STILL
KEEPING VISIBILITIES IN THE ONE QUARTER MILE TO AROUND A MILE RANGE.
WINDS STAYED LIGHT OR CALM IN MOST SPOTS. VERY LIGHT RAIN AND SOME
DRIZZLE ACCOUNTED FOR SMALL AMOUNTS OF ACCUMULATION. SOUTHERN AREAS
OF MAINE AND MOST OF THE GRANITE STATE WERE GENERALLY RESTRICTED...
FROM TRACE AMOUNTS TO ABOUT 5 HUNDREDTHS OF AN INCH. CENTRAL AND
NORTHERN SECTIONS OF MAINE SAW ACCUMULATIONS FROM 11 HUNDREDTHS TO A
LITTLE OVER A HALF INCH WELL NORTH.
OUR RELATIVELY WARM FALL WEATHER WILL GRADUALLY COME TO AN END ONCE
A COLD FRONT MAKES ITS WAY THROUGH NEW ENGLAND LATER TODAY AND
TONIGHT. NIGHTTIME LOWS WON`T START TO REFLECT THE COOLER AIRMASS
YET... AS LOWS ONLY FALL INTO THE 40S. MORE SHOWERS ARE GOING TO
DEVELOP OVERNIGHT... ENDING UP WITH A QUARTER TO A HALF INCH
ACCUMULATION BY MORNING.
HIGH TEMPERATURES BY SUNDAY WILL LOSE AROUND 5 DEGREES... BUT THAT`S
STILL NOT COLD BY ANY STANDARD AT THIS TIME OF YEAR. WESTERLY WINDS
BEHIND THE FRONT ARE EXPECTED TO HELP BRING SOME BREAKS AWAY FROM
THE MOUNTAINS... SO HOPEFULLY... MOST OF US SHOULD GET TO SEE SOME
SUNSHINE.
AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL CROSS NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND ON
MONDAY. THIS WILL BRING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS TO THE REGION AGAIN...
WITH SNOW SHOWERS POSSIBLE IN THE MOUNTAINS. BEYOND THAT... HIGH
PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC REGION... RIDGING INTO
NEW ENGLAND THROUGH MID-WEEK. WHILE THIS HIGH WILL ONLY BRING
PARTIAL CLEARING... GENERALLY FAIR WEATHER CAN BE EXPECTED... WITH
COOLER TEMPERATURES TOPPING OUT IN THE 40S EACH DAY.

A WARM FRONT SEPARATED THE NORTHERN THIRD OF MAINE...FROM THE
REMAINDER OF NEW ENGLAND OVERNIGHT. FOR MOST OF MAINE AND NEW
HAMPSHIRE...TEMPERATURES REMAINED IN THE LOWER TO MID 50S OVERNIGHT.
AGAIN...THIS IS UNSEASONABLY WARM FOR NIGHTTIME IN NOVEMBER.
MOISTURE TRAPPED IN THE ATMOSPHERES LOW LEVELS RESULTED IN AREAS OF
FOG...SOME FAIRLY DENSE OVERNIGHT. NORTH OF THE
BOUNDARY...TEMPERATURES WERE MUCH COOLER...WITH THE NORTHERN FRINGE
OF MAINE IN THE UPPER 30S. THERE WAS SOME PATCHY DRIZZLE ACROSS THE
REGION...BUT FEW STATIONS MEASURED ANY PRECIPITATION OVERNIGHT.
CONDITIONS WILL CHANGE LITTLE TODAY...AS THE WARM FRONT REMAINS
ACROSS NORTHERN MAINE...AND A COLD FRONT REMAINS TO THE WEST.
TEMPERATURES WILL WARM A BIT...REACHING INTO THE UPPER 50S...TO
PERHAPS 60 IN SOUTHERN LOCATIONS. AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES
CLOSER...SHOWERS WILL BECOME LIKELY THIS AFTERNOON. AREAS OF FOG
WILL ALSO LINGER THROUGH THE DAY.
THE COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE REGION OVERNIGHT...BRINGING SHOWERS TO
MOST. RAINFALL AMOUNTS WILL GENERALLY RUN A QUARTER TO A HALF INCH.
TEMPERATURES WILL AGAIN STRUGGLE TO DROP TONIGHT...ONLY DROPPING
INTO THE UPPER 40S IN MOST LOCATIONS.
THE SUN WILL FINALLY BREAK OUT AT TIMES SUNDAY...AS WESTERLY WINDS
BEHIND THE FRONT FINALLY MOVE OUT ALL THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE. THE
EXCEPTION WILL BE THE MOUNTAINS...WHERE CLOUDS AND SHOWERS WILL
LINGER THROUGHOUT THE DAY. HIGHS WILL AGAIN BE IN THE 50S...HOWEVER
BREAKS OF SUNSHINE MAY MAKE FOR A MORE PLEASANT DAY.
AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL CROSS NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND ON
MONDAY. THIS WILL BRING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS TO THE REGION...WITH
SNOW SHOWERS POSSIBLE IN THE MOUNTAINS. BEYOND...HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BUILD ACROSS THE MID ATLANTIC...THEN RIDGE INTO NEW ENGLAND THROUGH
MID-WEEK. WHILE THE HIGH WILL ONLY BRING A PARTIAL CLEARING...
GENERALLY FAIR WEATHER CAN BE EXPECTED...WITH TEMPERATURES TOPPING
OUT IN THE 40S EACH DAY.

RAIN MOVED OUT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE...AND SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL

MIDDLE AND LATE AFTERNOON. EVEN SO...ALL OTHER AREAS WERE LEFT WITH
A LOT OF LOW CLOUDINESS...AND SOME FOG AND OCCASIONAL DRIZZLE.
MOST AREAS TOPPED OUT IN THE 50S...BUT WHERE A FEW BREAKS IN THE

LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE INTO THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES BY DAYLIGHT
SATURDAY...AND ITS RESPECTIVE COLD FRONT WILL BE MOVING THROUGH NEW
YORK STATE. TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO BE MILD...AND THE FLOW
AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL TURN A BIT MORE TOWARDS THE
SOUTHWEST...HELPING TO DRY THE AIR A LITTLE IN OUR NECK OF THE
WOODS. WE WON`T BE LOSING THE CLOUDS...BUT THE DRIZZLE AND FOG WILL
BE LESSENED BEFORE SHOWERS ARRIVE LATER IN THE DAY.
BY SUNDAY MORNING...THE FRONT WILL BE MOVING OFFSHORE...AND WITH
DRIER AIR MOVING IN BEHIND IT SOME IMPROVEMENT IN OUR WEATHER WILL
OCCUR. SOUTHERN SECTIONS STAND THE BEST CHANCE OF CLEARING OUT
SUNDAY...WHILE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL SECTIONS OF MAINE AND NEW
HAMPSHIRE MAY STRUGGLE TO CLEAR OUT BEFORE SUNSET.
A COOL TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE AT UPPER LEVELS WILL BEGIN TO TAKE
CONTROL OF OUR WEATHER BY SUNDAY NIGHT...AND FOR THE FIRST HALF OF

10 AM EST FRI NOV 7 2008
ANOTHER BALMY NOVEMBER NIGHT FOR NEW ENGLAND... WITH LOWS THAT
GENERALLY RANGED THROUGH THE LOWER TO MID 50S. SOME OF THE MOUNTAIN
AREAS AND NORTHERN SECTIONS DID COOL TO THE 40S BEFORE DAYLIGHT.
CLOUDY CONDITIONS AND FOG PREVAILED... WHILE SOME RAIN AND DRIZZLE
WAS OBSERVED MOSTLY IN EASTERN AND NORTHERN MAINE. RAIN THAT FELL
OVERNIGHT DID PILE UP IN SOME AREAS. AS MUCH AS AN INCH ACCUMULATED
CLOSER TO THE COAST... WITH LESSER AMOUNTS WELL INLAND. LIGHT NORTH
TO NORTHEAST WINDS WERE REPORTED... BUT SEVERAL LOCATIONS IN CENTRAL
AND NORTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE OBSERVED CALM CONDITIONS AT 7 AM.
UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL PERSIST THE NEXT FEW DAYS. THE OUTBOUND
OCEAN SYSTEM WELL SOUTH OF CAPE COD HAD BEEN LOSING ITS INFLUENCE AS
IT HEADED FARTHER OUT TO SEA. CLOUDS... SHOWERS... DRIZZLE AND FOG
WILL CONTINUE TODAY... ALTHOUGH ON A DIMINISHING NOTE BY AFTERNOON.
DAYTIME HIGHS ARE ONLY GOING TO GET INTO THE LOWER 50S NORTH AND THE
UPPER 50S SOUTH... WITH A FEW SPOTS SLIPPING OVER THE 60 DEGREE MARK
WELL SOUTH.
A LARGE STORM SYSTEM MOVING VERY SLOWLY EAST INTO THE SOUTHERN GREAT
LAKES REGION WILL BEGIN TO PUSH MORE MOISTURE OUR WAY BY LATE
SATURDAY AND EARLY SUNDAY. A SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL MAINTAIN THE BALMY
CONDITIONS THROUGH SATURDAY AS HIGHS CONTINUE TO PUSH TO THE 50S AND
LOWER 60S. COOLER AIR STARTS TO MOVE IN SUNDAY AS THE LUMBERING LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM TURNS TOWARD QUEBEC PROVINCE. THIS WILL LEAVE SOME
SHOWERS OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND NORTH COUNTRY THROUGH MONDAY.
THE BEST WEATHER SHOULD DEVELOP IN SOUTHERN AND COASTAL SECTIONS
SUNDAY AND MONDAY. HIGHS ARE GOING TO TREND TOWARD MORE SEASONAL
LEVELS... BETWEEN 40 AND 50 DEGREES FROM NORTH TO SOUTH BY MONDAY
AND TUESDAY. FAIR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED INTO MID WEEK... BEFORE
MORE CLOUDS START TO FILTER IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST THURSDAY. EXPECT
THE NEXT SHOT OF RAIN TO MOVE IN BY LATE THURSDAY OR EARLY FRIDAY.

504 AM EST FRI NOV 7 2008
TEMPERATURES HARDLY DROPPED AT ALL OVERNIGHT...BRINGING UNSEASONABLY
WARM OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES TO NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. AT 500
AM...MOST OF MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE WERE IN THE LOWER 50S. AT 55
DEGREES...PORTLAND WAS ALREADY WARMER THAN ITS AVERAGE HIGH OF 51
FOR THE DAY. MEANWHILE...THE NORMALLY HOSTILE MOUNT WASHINGTON
REPORTED 45 DEGREES WITH 5 MPH WINDS.
A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OFF THE JERSEY COAST BROUGHT A BAND OF
MOISTURE INTO THE REGION OVERNIGHT. MOST AREAS SAW A PERSISTENT
DRIZZLE...WITH EMBEDDED SHOWERS BRINGING MORE SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF
RAINFALL. MANY LOCATIONS IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN MAINE RECEIVED
BETWEEN A HALF INCH AND AN INCH OF RAIN...WITH GENERALLY LESSER
AMOUNTS ELSEWHERE. THERE WAS PATCHY FOG ACROSS THE REGION.
FOR TODAY...THE LOW RESPONSIBLE FOR LAST NIGHTS WARM TEMPERATURES
AND RAIN WILL VERY SLOWLY DRIFT EAST. THIS WILL CAUSE THE SHOWERS TO
SHIFT IN LOCATION...BUT WILL NOT END THE PATCHY DRIZZLE AND CLOUDY
SKIES ACROSS THE REGION. IT LOOKS AS IF THE STEADIEST RAIN TODAY
WILL FALL ACROSS NORTHERN MAINE. TEMPERATURES WILL RISE A BIT
DURING THE DAY...WITH HIGHS NEAR 60 IN MOST LOCATIONS.
THE LOW WILL WEAKEN TONIGHT AS IT MOVES EAST...HOWEVER ANY
IMPROVEMENTS WILL BE SHORT LIVED...AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM
THE WEST SATURDAY. RAIN AND DRIZZLE ASSOCIATED WITH THE COLD FRONT
AND AN NEARBY WARM FRONT WILL MOVE IN SATURDAY...LINGERING THROUGH
SUNDAY MORNING. OUTSIDE OF THE RAIN AND DRIZZLE...TEMPERATURES WILL
CONTINUE TO BE ON THE WARM SIDE...WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 50S EACH
DAY. TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO STRUGGLE TO DROP OVERNIGHT...WITH
CLOUD COVER LIMITING COOLING.
SOUTHERN SECTIONS HAVE THE BEST CHANCE OF CLEARING OUT
SUNDAY...WHILE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL SECTIONS OF MAINE AND NEW
HAMPSHIRE MAY STRUGGLE TO CLEAR OUT BEFORE SUNSET. LINGERING SHOWERS
SHOULD COME TO AN END AS A COLD FRONT PUSHES EAST...ALLOWING FOR THE
PARTIAL CLEARING.
A UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL PASS MONDAY...BRINGING A CHANCE OF
SHOWERS. THEN HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FOR TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY...BRINGING A FAIR WEATHER TO THE REGION. TEMPERATURES WILL
BE SEASONABLE FOR THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK.
