Another slug of rain is pushing northward into Aroostook County this morning and rain is expected from today right through Sunday. The rain is expected to be heavy at times this afternoon into this evening. Additional rainfall amounts of 1.25 to 1.50 inches are expected over the next 36 hours.

Basement and street flooding is likely with small rivers and streams likely to reach bankful. The larger rivers such as the Saint John, Allagash and Aroostook Rivers will see significant rises, however, river flooding is not expected.

The rain will become much more of a showery nature by Memorial Day with some peeks of sunshine possible by Monday afternoon. Warmer temperatures will return to northern Maine by late next week with highs expected to reach the upper 70s to near 80 by Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
