Good evening, folks! I'm Aaron Jolly, and this's the Maine Weather Podcast for Saturday, February 21st. That fresh two inches of snow this morning looked gorgeous. Enjoy it. Because Monday's storm is going to make today feel like a vacation. Here's the deal. Right now you're sitting pretty. Sunshine, light winds, low 30s this afternoon. Perfect for shoveling out or just admiring the sparkle. But a powerful nor'easter is loading up, and it's taking dead aim at us Monday into Tuesday. The National Weather Service already has a Winter Storm Watch posted. Down along the coast and Portland, you'll hit 32 degrees today. Tonight drops to 19. Sunday warms to a pleasant 34. Then Monday? Five to nine inches of snow with gusts to 45 miles an hour. That's the kind of wind that rearranges your patio furniture. Head inland to Augusta and you're seeing highs near 30 today, 15 tonight. Monday drops three to five inches with gusty winds. Drive north to Bangor and Monday gets brutal. Three to seven inches, gusts near 40 miles an hour. Tuesday night? Lows near zero. Your car battery won't thank you. Now Downeast is where this storm really bares its teeth. Bar Harbor to Machias could see eight to twelve inches. Gusts to 45 miles an hour. Whiteout conditions. Travel might be flat out impossible at times. The western mountains catch a lighter punch. One to two inches Monday. And up in The County, three to five inches with gusty winds. Here's your heads up for the week ahead. Monday's storm clears Tuesday, but Wednesday brings another round of snow, especially up north. Thursday warms near 40 degrees in the south with a rain and snow mix. Friday? More light snow possible. Don't put that shovel away. If you've got Monday plans, cancel them now. Stock up tomorrow. Secure anything that could blow away. Stay put when the snow flies. One more thing. If this forecast helped you plan your weekend, share it with a neighbor. We're all in this together. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow. Stay safe out there, folks!
Good evening! I'm DJ Huzz, and welcome to the Maine Weather Podcast. It's Saturday, February 21st. Folks, enjoy tonight's quiet. Because Monday? A nor'easter is coming, and it means business. Winter Storm Watches are up for Downeast, Bangor, and southern Maine. We're talking heavy snow, dangerous winds, and roads you won't want to be on. But first, here's the deal with right now. Down in Portland, you topped out at 34 degrees today under sunny skies. Tonight you're dropping to 18. Head up to Augusta and Waterville, where highs hit 36 but overnight lows sink to 15. Bangor started at a teeth chattering 10 degrees this morning. Climbed to 36 by afternoon, but by 10 tonight it'll feel like 11. Over Downeast and along the Midcoast, highs reached 34. Lows tonight near 16. Now the cold spots. The Western Mountains only managed 30 degrees today. Overnight? Six degrees. And up in The County? Lows plummet to 2 degrees by 5 A.M. That's the kind of cold where your nostrils freeze shut. Here's what's coming Monday. Downeast and Bangor sit in the bullseye. Eight to twelve inches of snow with gusts hitting 45 miles an hour. Visibility could drop below a quarter mile. Southern and central Maine pick up five to nine inches with serious blowing and drifting. The County and mountains see three to five inches. If you've got Monday plans, start rethinking them tonight. Here's your heads up for the week ahead. Tuesday brings a brief break with partly sunny skies and highs in the twenties and thirties. Don't put the shovel away though. Wednesday into Thursday a clipper system rolls through with more snow, possibly mixing with rain down south. Friday warms into the upper thirties. But there's still a chance for showers, because February in Maine doesn't quit easy. One bright spot. We gained nearly three minutes of daylight today. Sunset hit 5:20 this evening. Spring is creeping closer. So. If this forecast helped you prepare, share it with a neighbor. We're all in this one together. Stay safe out there, folks. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow. Take care!
Good afternoon, folks! I'm Aaron Jolly, and welcome to the Maine Weather Podcast. It's Saturday, February 17th, and winter is doing exactly what winter does best. Here's the deal. Step outside in Portland and you're right at 32 degrees. Freezing, but barely. A light north wind at 5 to 10 miles an hour keeps things honest. There's a slight chance of flurries, but nothing that'll stick to your windshield. Now head up the coast. Downeast and Midcoast, you're sitting at 28 degrees. Dry and quiet. Bangor checks in at 29. Central Maine, 30. Pretty tight spread there. The Western Mountains? That's your cold spot today at 26 degrees. A light northeast breeze makes it bite a little harder. Perfect conditions up at Sugarloaf if you're chasing turns this weekend. And up in Aroostook, you're at 28 degrees with gusts hitting 13 miles an hour. That wind finds every gap in your jacket. Tonight temperatures slide into the teens and low 20s statewide. Winds ease off. Tomorrow brings a slight bump, mid 30s along the coast, upper 20s inland. Here's your heads up for the week ahead. No major storms lurking. That's the good news. You'll want to enjoy this quiet stretch because February always has one more trick. A gradual warming trend pushes highs back toward normal by midweek. Think low to mid 30s for most of us. Still winter, but the kind that doesn't hurt your face. One bright spot worth celebrating. Sunrise hit 6:32 this morning, and we're gaining almost three minutes of daylight every single day. You can feel it. Tides running high in Portland today, 9.7 feet at 1:33 this afternoon. Air quality is solid, so bundle up and get outside. Alright. If you're enjoying these daily updates, share us with a neighbor. Word of mouth keeps this thing going. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow. Stay safe out there!
Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly, and welcome to the Maine Weather Podcast. It's Saturday, February 17th. Folks, here's the deal. The County woke up at minus 3 this morning. Meanwhile, the South Coast is sitting at 20 degrees. That's a 23 degree spread across one state. Classic Maine. Let's take a drive. Down along the South Coast, you're at 20 degrees. Sounds almost cozy, right? Don't be fooled. That's still 12 degrees below normal for mid February. Head inland toward the Western Mountains and you'll find the coldest air in the state at 11 degrees. Light northeast winds around 5 miles an hour. Central Maine and Bangor hover in the mid teens. Downeast sits at 18 degrees. Now here's what's interesting. Scattered flurries are possible almost everywhere today. Central Maine and the mountains have the best shot at actually seeing accumulation. The County? Bone dry skies up there. Ironic, since they're the ones freezing hardest. Tonight, lows drop into single digits for most of the state. Up north? 5 to 10 below zero. That's the kind of cold where your nose hairs freeze on contact. Winds stay light, but bundle up if you're heading out. Tomorrow brings a quiet Sunday. Highs in the low 20s with some sunshine. Perfect for a winter walk near Portland Head Light if you layer up properly. Here's your heads up for the week ahead. We're locked into a cold but dry pattern. No big storms lurking. Highs creep toward the upper 20s by midweek, but mornings stay firmly in the teens. Tuesday might bring a dusting from a weak system. Nothing to lose sleep over. One bright spot. We're gaining nearly 3 minutes of daylight each day now. Sunrise hit 6:32 this morning. Spring is whispering, even if winter's still shouting. So. If this forecast helped you plan your Saturday, share it with a neighbor. Word of mouth keeps us going. Stay safe out there. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly, and you're listening to the 6 AM Maine Weather Podcast. It's Friday, February 23rd. Folks, grab that coffee and breathe easy. This is one of those quiet February mornings where Maine just sits still for a minute. No drama. No surprises. Just cold air and calm skies. Step outside in Portland and you'll feel 36 degrees. Not bad at all. Light southeast winds barely ruffling the flag. Head up to Augusta and it's about the same. Bangor and the Downeast coast? Mid 30s. Comfortable enough if you're layered up. Now drive into the Western Mountains and the thermometer drops to 31 degrees. Cold enough to keep that snowpack locked in tight. Good news if you're hitting Sunday River this weekend. Up in Aroostook? A crisp 26 degrees with a gentle northeast breeze. That's the kind of morning where your nostrils stick together on the first breath. Here's the deal for tonight. Temperatures dip into the 20s statewide. Winds stay whisper quiet. Just a cold, peaceful night. Saturday brings a little warmth. Upper 30s along the coast, low 30s inland. Sunday stays dry but clouds thicken. We're watching a system that could sneak in some light snow early next week. Here's your heads up for the week ahead. Monday keeps warming slightly before a quick cooldown hits midweek. No blockbuster storms on the radar. A weak system might dust the mountains Tuesday, but nothing to lose sleep over. Air quality today is moderate. Most folks won't notice, but sensitive groups should keep it in mind. One bright spot? We're gaining nearly three minutes of daylight every day now. Sunrise at 6:33 this morning. Sunset stretches to 5:18. Your evening commute is getting brighter, and that feels wicked good after a long winter. Alright. If this podcast helps you start your morning right, share it with a neighbor. Word of mouth keeps us going. I'll be back at 9 AM with your next update. Bundle up and enjoy the calm. Take care!
