FIRST ALERT WEATHER: Cloud Coverage Builds Friday, With A Few Snow Showers Possible This Weekend

PRESQUE ISLE, Maine (WAGM) - Good evening everyone and happy Thursday. We had a decent day across the region today with sunshine making a return after several days of mostly cloudy skies and occasional rain and snow showers. Partly cloudy skies overnight tonight will once again allow temperatures to cool off into the upper teens and lower 20s. We’ll see more cloud coverage build into the region during the day tomorrow, with temperatures remaining slightly below average for this time of year. The coastal storm we’ve been watching over the past several days continues to look like a miss for our region, but we will still have to watch for some light shower activity heading into the upcoming weekend.
