Bangor, Maine – Rain is drenching central and Downeast Maine this Sunday with totals of up to three-quarters of an inch, making for slick travel and wet conditions across the region. The heaviest rainfall is expected near Bangor and coastal Downeast towns, while northern and central Maine hold steady in the 60s for afternoon highs.
According to the National Weather Service in Caribou, showers will taper off tonight as high pressure builds in. Cloudy skies and cooler overnight lows will settle in, dropping into the upper 40s to low 50s statewide. The shift sets the stage for a dry, calm start to the week.
By Monday night, temperatures are forecast to dip sharply, with northern Maine seeing lows in the mid-30s and the Downeast region in the 40s. That raises the risk for patchy frost across northern counties. Gardeners and homeowners are advised to protect sensitive plants and outdoor vegetation from the potential chill.
Conditions remain dry through early week, with no additional rain expected after tonight. Residents should monitor updates as the frost threat grows heading into Monday night.
