Hello everyone!
Today will feature another fantastic day for anyone interested in outdoor activities. Outside of just a few cirrus clouds, skies will be full of sunshine area-wide. The strong June sun will send temps up into the 70’s for everyone except perhaps the tips of the Midcoast peninsulas. Most inland areas will end up near 80, while a sea breeze keeps points NE of Portland several degrees lower. Given light large scale gradient flow today, the sea breeze will be relatively robust, which is something to keep in mind if you’re headed out on the coastal waters. Also keep in mind that while air temps are warming up, the water temperature of rivers, streams, lakes, and the Gulf of Maine remain very cold. Swimming season for most of us is still a ways off!
