Expected
Effective:
April 3, 2026 - 11:05am
Expires:
April 3, 2026 - 2:00pm
Description:
Areas of light sleet or freezing drizzle across Northwest and
Northeast Aroostook County will continue to create isolated to
scattered areas of slick road conditions through 4PM. Remaining
slushy road conditions in Northern Penobscot and all of Aroostook
County may cause additional slick conditions. Temperatures are
continuing to rise towards or above freezing which will improve
conditions over the next 1 to 2 hours.
Tonight, temperatures will fall rapidly below freezing between 9PM
and 1AM, this will create the potential for a flash freeze and
additional slick conditions. Snow showers falling on rapidly
cooling roadways may increase the slick road travels. Use caution
driving slowly and carefully if you must go out as conditions can
rapidly change over short distances.
