Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Northern and Eastern Maine
National Weather Service Caribou ME
915 AM EDT Thu Aug 7 2025

.DISCUSSION...
High pressure dominates our weather through the end of the work
week. It should be dry, with light winds as a result.
Temperatures and humidities gradually increase through the end of
the week. The next chance for measurable rainfall is across the
North on Saturday, but even then any precipitation should be
relatively light.
