I’m a third-year atmospheric science student at Cornell University who has been blogging about the weather since 2011. While I’m not officially a meteorologist, I have accumulated a bit of experience forecasting both local weather (in western Maine and New Hampshire) as well as national/international weather during my time writing for weather.us and weathermodels.com. I also have experience programming in Python, teaching concepts in weather forecasting, and communicating forecast information to general audiences.
Today will feature continued very mild weather as southwesterly breezes continue to push warm air into the region from Mid Atlantic. Skies are starting sunny this morning but some clouds may try to move in from the west this afternoon. The best chance for clouds will be up along the Canadian border. High temps will continue to range from the upper 60s/low 70s way up in the mountains and along the Midcoast to the mid/upper 70s in interior southern areas as well as some of the foothills farther north. Not much precipitation is expected in the area today, but a stray late afternoon shower can’t be ruled out in the CT Valley.
High pressure remains firmly in charge of the region’s weather today which means more mild air and quiet weather. Fog has laid claim to most of the area’s valleys this morning, but should be quick to burn off after sunrise. Just like yesterday, most of the area should then see at least a few hours of blue sky before cirrus tries to thicken up this afternoon. No precip is expected as storm systems continue tracking well to our west and north. South of the storm track, high temps will remain well above what we’d expect for this time of year, generally ranging from the upper 60s way up north and right along Penobscot Bay to the mid 70s in interior southern NH/SW Maine.
Today will feature continued quiet weather along with perhaps a little bit more sunshine as high pressure attempts to build in from the northeast. Look for high temps ranging through the 60s with the coolest air up in the mountains and the warmest down in the foothills of NH/SW ME. Fog and low clouds are spread thick across much of the area this morning but will gradually lift and break up as we head into the midday hours. Some high clouds will then approach from the west this afternoon, but I’m expecting at least some sunshine in between, especially farther east.
Today will feature generally quiet weather as a backdoor cold front approaches from the northeast. Ahead of this boundary, mild weather will continue especially for NH today with high temps ranging from the upper 60s in the northern part of the state to the low or even mid 70s down south. Skies here will be mostly sunny. Over in Maine, the front will be arriving in the early afternoon so we’ll feel more of its impact. Look for morning sunshine to give way to some patchy clouds this afternoon as the front swings through. Some of those clouds may produce drizzle and fog especially closer to the midcoast this afternoon. Winds will become gusty out of the east/northeast after the front, holding temps in the low to mid 60s for most with some upper 50s northeast of Augusta and along the shores of Penobscot Bay.
It’s hard to ask for better weather in early October given what’s on tap today. Look for mostly sunny skies across the area, light winds, and temps rising into the low 70s for most (some mid/upper 60s up north and right along the coast). There’s just a little bit of river/valley fog showing up on satellite imagery this morning especially over NH, but that should burn off quickly. Enjoy the nice weather! This is probably one of the last times we’ll hit 70 until the spring.
Today will feature improving weather and clearing skies as low pressure falls apart in the Gulf of Maine and high pressure builds in from the north. Skies are already clearing up in northeastern parts of the region this morning, and sunshine will gradually advance towards the southwest later today. The region is mostly done with the rain, but some more showers are possible over southern New Hampshire. Temps will be warmest (mid 60s) up in the north where sunshine will be most widespread and coolest in southern NH (mid 50s) where clouds will hang tough for most if not all of the day.
Today will feature cool temps, cloudy skies, and sometimes showery weather as we remain underneath a stalled frontal boundary. The best chance for some breaks of sun will be mid morning up northeast of Augusta after some early morning fog burns off. Temps up here could touch 60 while the rest of the area stays stuck in the 50s. Farther southwest, thick clouds will hold tight and showers will slowly advance out of southern NH into southwestern Maine this afternoon.
Another storm system has wandered its way to our doorstep this morning which means we’re back to the cool and unsettled side of early fall. Skies are overcast across pretty much the whole area with just a couple glimpses of sunshine over southern NH. This will remain the case for most of the day as a front stalls out over central parts of the area. Folks near the front and up in the mountains have the best shot at seeing rain, though a few showers will escape into the foothills and perhaps even the coastal plain especially in the next couple hours and again later in the afternoon.
Temps will be determined strongly by which side of the front you’re on. Far southern NH will be on the warm side of the front with highs in the low 70s. Most of us will be near or on the cool side of the front with highs in the mid 50s to mid 60s. The mountains will be firmly on the cool side of the front with rain and thicker clouds, so highs there may struggle to even reach 50.
Today will feature another round of cool and unsettled weather as an upper-level low remains overhead. Satellite imagery this morning shows mostly cloudy skies across the area which will generally remain throughout the day. As we get some daytime heating, clouds may break up a bit especially over southwestern NH. We’ll also see the development of more widespread showers, especially up in the mountains and points northeast of Augusta. The clouds and cool air moving in from Canada will keep temps cool with highs ranging from around 50 up in the north to around 60 in far southern NH.
Today will feature cooler temps and unsettled conditions as an upper-level low slides south out of Canada. Look for morning sunshine especially away from the coastal plain to give way to cloudier skies this afternoon as some instability develops thanks to the cold air aloft. That instability will support some showers beginning early in the afternoon over northern and northeastern parts of the area before moving south later in the afternoon. Precipitation will be most likely and most persistent over the mountains thanks to some upsloping. Temps will be held down by the cooler air aloft and relatively abundant cloud cover with highs ranging from the low/mid 50s up north to the low/mid 60s along the southern coast.
