Come on, Weather

2006 has seen the wettest May on record for Maine. This is mostly due to the huge downpours experienced by Southern Maine; Downeast (including Mount Desert Island where we are getting married) has seen a fair bit but nothing like the drenching our "North Massachussets" compatriots got.

Right now it is sunny and a little chilly. By the weekend the National Weather Service is predicting a 30% chance of rain on Friday and Saturday, partial cloud and 20% chance of rain for Ceremony Sunday®, and warmish temps (61 deg f, which in English is 16 deg c). The chance of rain throughout the week has dropped to between 20-30% and anything we get is being posted a showers as opposed to sustained downpours, so what moisture is left in Val and Les's garden should be minimal by the time the big tent goes up. I still wouldn't wear your most delicate shoes though, and it might be wise to bring your raincoat and leave it in the car.

For a full breakdown, here is the NWS forecast for Bar Harbor.
