It’s a tale as old as time. The transition period between summer and fall tends to lead to interesting weather. This week features a taste of summer and a glimpse at what lies ahead.

Comfortable days will start the work week; rain chances are limited
Pretty nice stretch of weather on the way after the soaker on Saturday. Expect a lot of sunshine and days in the 70s with low humidity.
More heat, humidity to kick off the week
This has been one of the warmest summers on record through most of the northeast. The trend continues as we push into the middle of August.
More heat to start the week, thunderstorms expected Tuesday
Monday will be in the running for the hottest day of the year, especially across southwestern Maine. A cold front on Tuesday will push some thunderstorms through, with more unsettled weather after that. Friday brings on the clearing trend.
Generally rainy and cooler this week, looking great for the holiday weekend
With a moderate drought taking hold through most of the state, it’s time we sacrificed some sunny days and let it rain. The timing is perfect, though, since July Fourth is looking pretty fantastic!
Humid to start the week, storm chances increase on Wednesday
After the abnormally hot and rain-free stretch, we get relief in the form of less humidity and widespread showers. It takes a few days to get there, though.
Chilly start to the week, back to summer by Friday
May is leaving us with a brief reminder of how we started the month: chilly and breezy. Temperatures return to normal as soon as Wednesday, with isolated 80s possible for Friday.
