Caribou, ME – Rain showers across northern and central Maine are expected to taper off today, but residents should prepare for fog tonight and another round of wet weather later this week.
According to the National Weather Service in Caribou, temperatures today will remain warmer than average, with highs in the low to mid-70s. Fog could form overnight as lingering moisture combines with cooler nighttime air, potentially reducing visibility for drivers.
Dry conditions will return Wednesday before another system moves in Thursday night. That system is forecast to bring widespread rain across the state into Friday. The heaviest totals are likely to fall Downeast, though forecasters note some uncertainty remains about the exact track of the storm.
By late Friday into Saturday, drier weather is expected to return, offering a break from the unsettled pattern. Residents are advised to monitor updated forecasts, especially those in coastal and Downeast areas, where rainfall could be more significant.
The National Weather Service recommends caution for evening and overnight travel due to fog, as well as preparing for potential wet commutes late in the week.
