Hello everyone!

Today will feature increasing cloud cover as our next storm system slowly approaches from the west. Southwesterly winds ahead of this system will boost high temps several degrees above where they’ve been over the past few days, ranging from 40 in the north to nearly 50 in the south.

Precipitation associated with the incoming storm will hold off until tomorrow. Heavy snow is expected in the mountains, while freezing rain falls closer to the coast. More details on that will be posted tomorrow morning.

Hello everyone!

Today will feature cool temps and quiet weather as high pressure slides offshore just to our south. Over the course of the day, winds will shift towards the southwest, which means milder air will begin moving towards the region. That being said, the whole East Coast enjoyed the same airmass we did over the past few days, so the air to our southwest isn’t all that warm. High temps will reflect that, ranging from around 30 in the north to around 40 along the NH Seacoast.

Skies will be mostly sunny during the first half of the day today, with a few clouds filtering in from the west during the afternoon. Our next round of rain and snow will arrive Monday/Tuesday.

Hello everyone!

Today will feature seasonably chilly weather as cold air moves into the region from Canada on brisk NW winds. High temps will range from 25 in the north to 35 in the south, with wind chill values considerably colder.

The NW winds will set up a classic upslope/downslope pattern with mostly sunny skies expected along the coastal plain and overcast conditions likely along and upwind of the mountains. Today’s pattern is also set up favorably for accumulating upslope snows, and the typically favored NW-facing slopes will pick up several more inches of snow during the day today, with a few of those flurries making their way down into the foothills.

Hello everyone!

A cold front will be moving through the region today, and it will be responsible for producing the first flakes of the season across many areas. Currently, temps outside the mountains are on the warmer side (in the low to mid 40’s), but evaporation into the low level dry air and importation of cold air from Canada will join forces to push temps in the downward direction this afternoon. Up in the mountains, light snow has already been reported with temps below freezing.

For this morning, light snow will continue in the mountains while rain showers approach NH from the SW. Expect rain to expand into Maine during the early afternoon hours before the rain/snow line begins its march south during the mid/late afternoon. Most folks in the mountains will likely see 2-4″ with higher totals as you gain more elevation. A dusting is possible in the foothills while no accumulation is expected along the coast. The exception to this will be interior parts of the Midcoast (between Augusta and Belfast) where up to 1″ is possible as precip will linger later into the night over those areas.

High temps today will range from 30 in the north to 45 along the coast.

More cold and snow is expected over the coming week, so now is a good time to dust off the winter gear if you haven’t already!

Hello everyone!

High pressure drifting slowly through the Ohio Valley will bring quiet weather to the region today. Expect more sun than clouds, especially downwind of the mountains. High temps will be a little on the cooler side of seasonable, ranging from around 30 in the north to around 50 in the south. No precip is expected today. Our next round of rain (and this time some snow too!) will arrive later tomorrow.

Hello everyone!

Today will feature the return of unsettled weather as two cold fronts linger near the region. The first front sits offshore this morning, and has more moisture (and thus rain) associated with it. This front will remain stationary for most of the day before moving slowly east this evening. It will likely be responsible for a period of steady rain along the midcoast east of Bath during the late afternoon/early evening hours.

The second front is moving into the region from the west. It currently doesn’t have much moisture, but is producing some shower activity off to our west. This front will bring some scattered shower activity to the mountains today before moving offshore this evening. A noticeably colder airmass will move in behind this system for the rest of the week, setting up our first snowfall event on Thursday night.

High temps today will be on the milder side, ranging from 45 in the north to 55 in the south.

Hello everyone!

Today will feature the gradual return of some cloud cover as a cold front approaches from the west. Expect a sunny start for most of the area before clouds slowly arrive from west to east this afternoon. Temps will remain on the chillier side, ranging from around or a little above 40 in the north to right around 50 along the NH Seacoast. Any light precip associated with the approaching front will hold off until late tonight/early tomorrow morning.

Hello everyone!

Today will feature more quiet weather as the pattern over North America shifts towards one that is unfavorable for generating big storms. A very weak cold front will slide through the region today, but aside from a few clouds passing overhead, you’ll hardly notice its presence. Expect another day of partly to mostly sunny skies (outside the typical mountain upslope regions) and temps on the cooler side, with highs ranging from 40 in the north to a little above 50 in the south.

Hello everyone!

Today will feature quiet weather as high pressure drifts overhead following yesterday’s cold frontal passage. Expect mostly sunny skies across the region, along with cooler temps as our Canadian airmass settles in. Highs will range from around 40 in the mountains to a little below 50 in SE NH. Winds will be fairly calm today, but will turn towards the southeast this evening so I wouldn’t be surprised if a few low clouds move in off the water around sunset, especially NE of Portland.

Don’t forget that today marks the last day of Daylight Saving Time, and thus we will “fall back” by an hour tonight. For those who still have clocks of the analog variety, it’s time to get those dials cranking (is that actually how that works?). Enjoy the well-deserved extra hour of sleep!

Hello everyone!

A strong cold front is moving through the region this morning, and we’ll spend most of today in its wake. This means that winds will be quite gusty out of the WSW, and temps will be falling. The wind gusts could exceed 40 mph especially in the mountains. These winds will delay restoration of power to those that lost it last night, and may cause some new outages as well. Winds will be strongest early this afternoon before tapering off this evening.

Meanwhile, temps will be falling quickly as a colder airmass surges in from the west. Current temps are in the 50’s across NH and low/mid 60’s across much of Maine. By noon, expect temps in the mid 40’s across most of NH (except for SE areas) and the mountains of Maine, while the coastal plain sees temps in the low to mid 50’s. Temps will fall further, into the mid/upper 30’s for northern/western areas and low/mid 40’s for the coast, by this evening.

As far as precipitation goes, showers currently impacting the area will move east in the next 2-3 hours, and dry conditions will remain for the rest of the day along with some developing sunshine especially in southern/eastern areas.
