We'll get to Jason in just a moment,
but first we've been saying that it's
been less than ideal weather today,
but one couple made it work.
Michelle share this video today of
her son Brian and now fiance Ariel at
Acadian National Park. They are new.
And we're told Brian wanted to
kick off a lifetime of memories in
the state by proposing at Acadia.
Congratulations to the couple.
And remember, you can send us your
photos and videos to the Near Me
section of the new Center main app.
Well, Jason, I have to say,
I'm glad at least two people
had fun outdoors today
and the rain held off there, right?
So they got that in.
Even though it would have been a
better story if it was pouring.
Yeah, exactly. Which it is now. Yeah,
go back the whole state we are locked in.
I mean, everywhere it is raining hard.
Take a look at, that's the Kenny bunk
rest stop or whatever exit you want to
call it there behind and you could see
the visibility is low on that camera.
Heavy rain overnight.
A flash flood threat goes up more than
two inches already has fallen for a
part of southern Maine along the coast,
especially up to four locally.
And the pollen yes is washes away
and then be warm and breezy tomorrow
to end the weekend and a much drier
notes precip accumulation here.
This is what the radar estimates
and you can see where you see the
green that is about two inches.
So about a gust of South Down to Portland
to the southern coast where you have
the rain has come down quite a bit.
Here's a last check of satellite and radar.
What I'm going to do here is get rid of
the cloud layer and really take a look at
this radar to show you what's going on.
You can very easily see here with those
live sweeps coming through from Caribou
down around Gray where the yellows are
and also you have some banding offshore.
So going forward,
we have a low level jet basically
that's kind of like steroids,
a little shot of energy into the
storm that's off the coast and that's
going to be screaming and moving
into the mid coast and down east.
You see what's happening here down in Boston,
down towards Rhode Island about
150 miles away.
So this thing's not done yet, but this.
Has a bullseye up north for
us mid coast and down east.
So mid coast and down east.
Friends,
you are not done by a long
shot with this one.
Visibility is low especially where it's
raining very heavily and we also have
the temperature dew point together that.
Creates fog,
so that's also lowers visibility.
Wind coming up off of the ocean.
We have tropical moisture here coming
up all the way from the Atlantic and
the Gulf and that's why we're locked
in with rain here with low pressure
north and West as the anchor and a
little area of low pressure here
coming up the coast to give it that
little steroid shot of energy which
is going to beef up the turtles.
And there is that little area right there.
This is a low level jet increase
in wind you're going to see as
it moves up the mid coast.
And down east by 2:00 o'clock in the
morning still raining southern coast.
But watch what happens like that 5:00
o'clock it shuts off from Bangor South
and West and that rain continues to
push up north and east and it's over.
And tomorrow looks amazing.
Down sloping wind, 70s,
lots of sun before the secondary
front gets here to cool us.
Down just a bit.
So 1/4 to 1/2 western mountains up north,
1/2 to 1 inch South of that and then
Foothills S one to two inches plus and
that's where you can definitely have
that flash flooding threat as the winds
going to be picking up with the rain
that's already down 44 mile an hour.
Wind gusts here from the model
tomorrow morning and that's going
to go once again up the coast is
where the winds going to be greatest.
This is a coastal situation for wind.
For tonight, seas at 5 to 7 feet
tomorrow with SW gusting to 30.
Gale warning is up.
Oh yeah, next three days.
The forecast tomorrow looks amazing.
70s, sunny and breezy and warm.
And then we cool down with a sunny sky.
Temperatures in the 60s for highs.
As you can see your inland a few showers
Wednesday not enough to ruin any real plans.
And for the coast, same thing.
Wednesday is the only day
of a couple of showers,
but let's talk about the weekend.
This weekend we're not the holiday yet
so we're just going to folks in this
weekend and it is really Tomorrow is
a amazing day for outdoor activities.
You'll be out there playing golf,
won't you?
Are you gonna
try to sneak, maybe go to the
driving range early before we get in?
And Jason, I know we have a lot
of sunshine these next few days,
but since we've been working together,
I don't know if I remember a
time when the entire state was
getting rain at the same time.
I feel like it rarely happens.
Yeah, and we haven't got it and it
is beneficial and it's happening
mostly while we're sleeping.
So that is good for the lawn in the garden,
especially when it's.
Sunny for the next few days.
Ohh yeah alright Jason, thank you.
