Overview

• Coastal rain bands diminished through Sunday with clearing expanding inland by late day as remaining showers shifted offshore in the evening.
• Rainfall was highly uneven, with about 0.48 inches logged at Portland so far this month and a 2.07-inch report in New Gloucester from Saturday’s storms.
• High pressure builds in, delivering low humidity and highs generally in the upper 60s to low 70s after notably cool mornings.
