Weve been getting some on and off up here in Van Buren. Most was like 2" and it left within the day. But we had a dusting stay for a couple days then it rained. But the reain will help the ground freeze hard for a nice base. Shes coming boys, dont cream your pants to early. Anyone head up this way alot? Would there be nay interest in a northern ride? try and find a good 175-250 mile loop?

Northern Maine Weather Forecast

Issued: Wednesday, November 14, 2007 610 am EST

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Weather Forecast Discussion:

Today will be a fairly decent day with partly sunny skies expected as an area of high pressure moves to our east setting up a southerly wind flow over the area. This southerly wind flow will help boost our high temperatures today into the upper 40s to low 50s.
For tonight, a frontal system is forecast to move into New England. This frontal system will cause our skies to quickly become cloudy before midnight with rain expected after midnight. Low temperatures tonight will be around 40 Degrees.
On Thursday, the frontal system is forecast to stall over eastern New England and an area of low pressure is forecast to develop along this front over Cape Cod on Thursday morning and then push slowly northeastward into the western part of the Gulf of Maine during Thursday afternoon. Rain is expected throughout the day Thursday with rainfall amounts of around one inch forecast for Thursday. High temperatures Thursday will be in the mid 40s.
On Thursday night, the forecast becomes a lot more complicated as low pressure is forecast to intensify as it crawls north-northeast near the central and downeast coast of Maine. Rain is expected during the first half of Thursday night. Then, the precipitation will either changeover to all snow or become a mixture of rain and snow. The best chance for the complete changeover to snow will be west and north of Caribou and especially up in the St. John Valley. Low temperatures Thursday night will be in the low to mid 30s.
On Friday, the weather forecast remains very complicated and quite difficult, as low pressure system will push northward into New Brunswick during the morning and then pivot north-northwest over New Brunswick during the afternoon. A mixture of rain and snow is forecast along and east of the Route 1 corridor on Friday morning with all snow forecast north and west of this corridor. All area of northern Maine can expect all snow during Friday afternoon and conditions may become windy during the afternoon causing some blowing and drifting of the snow. Morning temperatures will get up into the mid 30s, but will fall back into the upper 20s to low 30s during Friday afternoon.
On Friday night, low pressure will continue tracking northwestward through central and northern New Brunswick. Snow is forecast for the first half of Friday night with scattered snow showers expected after midnight Friday night. Low temperatures Friday night will be in the low 20s.
Now, to answer the big question, how much snow could fall from Thursday night through Friday night?? The answer to this question is pretty complicated because it depends on where you are located. Along and east of the Route 1 corridor, including Caribou and Presque Isle, storm snowfall totals could average 4 to 8 inches by Saturday morning. North and west of the Route 1 corridor, total snowfall amounts could exceed a foot by Saturday morning, especially in the St. John Valley.
This forecast could change over the next day or so as the exact track of this low pressure system is not entirely certain and is crucial in determining exact snowfall totals. Please keep checking back for the latest forecasts concerning this upcoming storm.
On Saturday, low pressure will be located well to our north. Skies are forecast to be mostly cloudy on Saturday with scattered snow showers. High temperatures Saturday will be in the mid 30s. Sunday will be mostly cloudy with a chance of snow showers as low pressure remains anchored to our north. High temperatures Sunday will be in the low to mid 30s.
