Caribou, ME – Northern Maine residents should prepare for a potential shift in weather as the week closes. After enjoying warm and sunny conditions through Thursday, a weak cold front could bring scattered showers to northern and central areas by Friday afternoon. Highs will remain in the upper 70s to near 80 degrees Thursday, offering an ideal opportunity for outdoor activities.
According to the National Weather Service, Friday’s front may lower temperatures slightly, with the chance of rain primarily affecting the northern regions. However, by Saturday, the weather is expected to clear again, with mostly sunny skies returning and temperatures rebounding into the upper 70s.
Residents planning weekend events should keep an eye on the forecast, as any rain from the front will likely be brief. By Sunday and early next week, warm and dry conditions will dominate, providing a pleasant end to the weekend. The continued ridge of high pressure could even extend the mild weather into midweek.
Stay tuned for updates, especially regarding Friday’s possible showers, and plan accordingly to take full advantage of the upcoming sunny days.
