Crazy warmth in Maine

I came across this image on Twitter and just had to share it.

This afternoon, the hottest place east of the Mississippi river was in Northern Maine!

3:00 PM Air Temperatures

Click on the image to further examine how warm it is in northern New England. Why are we seeing this incredible warmth? We can blame a cutoff low that is sitting in the mid-atlantic right now, causing tropical air to rest in the northeast. That 94 that you see in Northern Maine sure is something!

I'll have an update on my travels when I arrive home.
