Caribou, Maine – Spring will shine briefly across northern Maine before a midweek cool-down brings showers and renewed travel risks to Caribou. Sunday offers the best window for outdoor plans, with partly sunny skies and highs near 65°F expected by afternoon.
According to the National Weather Service in Caribou, calm conditions Sunday morning will give way to west winds between 15–20 mph, with gusts reaching 25 mph. Monday continues the warming trend with sunny skies and a high near 62°F, but by Tuesday night, scattered showers may begin impacting visibility and travel—especially along U.S. Route 1 through Aroostook County.
Winds will shift south Monday night and into Tuesday, helping push temperatures into the mid-60s. However, moisture builds quickly Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, with a 60% chance of rain by dawn. Patchy fog and slick roads may affect commuters early Wednesday, particularly on rural roads like Route 89 or portions of State Route 161.
