410 FNUS51 KGYX 050901 FWFGYX Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Western Maine and New Hampshire National Weather Service Gray ME 501 AM EDT Sun May 5 2024 .DISCUSSION... Southeast flow continues to build a humid airmass into New England today with increasing clouds, and eventually a round of wetting rainfall across the region through tonight. Humidity will remain very high into Monday morning, then a cold front crosses which will allow for better mixing, clearing, and drying. Tuesday will be the driest day of the period, with mostly sunny skies and temperatures warming into the 70s over most of the area. Though, light winds will allow a seabreeze to develop. Rainy weather returns with a couple waves crossing through the area through the middle and end of the week.
