Sparkling Sunshine Will Exit (But Not for Long)
BANGOR, Maine (WABI) -Our weather pattern has been ideal for the last couple of days (at least in my humble opinion,) with sparkling sunshine and temperatures ranging in the low 70s. We do have some changes ahead, but nothing very dramatic. A frontal boundary will approach and eventually slide through Northern New England Saturday. Much of the day will be dry, with showers arriving late in the day and into the evening hours. Showers will be steady at times overnight into Sunday, with showers dissipating Sunday morning. Another frontal boundary will keep clouds in our region during the day Sunday with some scattered showers visiting from time to time.
