First Day of Summer Chill, Turns into a Gorgeous Afternoon!

PRESQUE ISLE, Maine (WAGM) -

Good Tuesday evening everyone - and, Happy First Day of Summer!

We experienced chillier temperatures this morning, occurring around the timing of the Summer Solstice at 5:13am. A lot of us hovered just above the freezing mark, with Estcourt Station being the cold spot and dropping-off just below freezing, at 31°.

Then, we saw a quick turnaround during the day, with temps recovering and rising by 30-degrees to reach upper-60′s and lower-70′s by the afternoon.

The sunshine we saw from today will be a repeat for tomorrow. And we can expect our warming trend to continue ahead this week, seeing possible 80-degree days by the upcoming weekend.

As of now, rain chances look minimal ahead, with just a few isolated showers expected for Thursday and Friday - and more widespread rain anticipated for the beginning of next week.
