Caribou, ME – Northern Maine residents can expect a breezy and cloudy Friday as high pressure gradually clears skies across the region, according to the National Weather Service in Caribou. Clouds are forecast to lift through the day, especially in southern and western parts of the state.
According to the NWS, high temperatures will range from the upper 40s to mid-50s across most of northern and eastern Maine. The forecast shows winds increasing through the day as a departing low-pressure system allows north winds to strengthen, producing gusts between 15 and 25 mph in some areas.
Forecasters say the combination of cooler air and gusty winds will make for a brisk fall day, particularly in northern counties such as Aroostook and Piscataquis. The NWS added that the next round of showers is expected to move into the region on Monday, signaling an unsettled start to the week.
Residents are advised to secure outdoor items and use caution if driving high-profile vehicles in gusty areas.
