WEATHER SUMMARY FOR MAINE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAY MAINE
310 AM EST MON NOV 9 2009
HIGH PRESSURE GAVE US SOME BEAUTIFUL NOVEMBER WEATHER ON SUNDAY. 
LOTS OF SUNSHINE WARMED THE LANDSCAPE INTO THE 60S IN MOST AREAS.  
PORTLAND REGISTERED A HIGH OF 66 DEGREES...JUST ONE DEGREE SHY OF 
THE RECORD HIGH FOR NOVEMBER 8TH.
OUR SKIES REMAINED CLEAR AND WINDS LIGHT THROUGH EARLY THIS MORNING. 
THIS HAS ALLOWED TEMPERATURES TO DROP OFF CONSIDERABLY FROM THOSE 
MILD TEMPERATURES. AS OF 3 AM MOST TOWNS HAD TEMPERATURES IN THE 20S 
WITH MANY COASTAL COMMUNITIES IN THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 30S.
THE HIGH WILL GIVE US ANOTHER VERY PLEASANT DAY TODAY. IN FACT SOME 
SOUTHERN TOWNS AWAY FROM THE COAST COULD APPROACH THE 70 DEGREE 
MARK. OTHERWISE, JUST ABOUT EVERYONE SHOULD ENJOY HIGHS IN THE 60S, 
SAVE FOR SOME MID COAST TOWNS WHERE AN ONSHORE WIND MAY KEEP IT JUST 
A TAD COOLER AND SOME TOWNS IN THE MOUNTAINS MAY ALSO TOP OUT JUST 
BELOW THE 60 DEGREE MARK.
A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL SLIDE OFF THE COAST BY EARLY TUESDAY. THIS 
FRONT SHOULD PASS THROUGH WITH LITTLE FANFARE. SOME CLOUDS MAY 
ACCOMPANY THE FRONT TONIGHT AND EARLY TUESDAY BUT NO PRECIPITATION 
IS EXPECTED. THIS FRONT WILL BE FOLLOWED BY HIGH PRESSURE WHICH WILL 
PROVIDE ANOTHER PLEASANT DAY ON TUESDAY, THOUGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE 
A FEW DEGREES COOLER. STILL, AFTERNOON HIGHS SHOULD REACH INTO THE 
LOWER AND MIDDLE 50S NORTH AND UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S SOUTH.
THE HIGH WILL SETTLE IN ACROSS NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND ON WEDNESDAY 
THEN STRETCH INTO THE MARITIMES THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. AT THE 
SAME TIME LOW PRESSURE WILL GATHER STRENGTH AS IT MEANDERS SLOWLY 
UP THE EAST COAST. AT THIS TIME THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO STALL OUT TO 
OUR SOUTH WITH THE HIGH TO OUR NORTH MAINTAINING ITS GRIP ON OUR 
WEATHER. UNLESS THE LOW FINDS A WAY TO PUSH FURTHER NORTH, WE CAN 
EXPECT DRY WEATHER AND SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES TO PERSIST THROUGH 
THE END OF THE WEEK.
A FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL MOVE IN FROM THE WEST ON SUNDAY AS THE LOW TO 
OUR SOUTH BEGINS TO HEAD OUT TO SEA. THE FRONT COULD KICK OFF A FEW 
SHOWERS FOR US ON SUNDAY.
