Flood in Waldo County, Maine

Excessive rainfall with amounts close to 5 caused water to flow over Route 1 in Northport between Beech Hill Rad and Shore Rd.

An upper level moved out the Great Lakes towards New England on the 7th. An area of low pressure developed across the Mid-Atlantic and pushed north into the Gulf of Maine through the day. These features interacted with anomalous moisture across the region for October bringing convective rain squalls and areas of heavy rain. Most of Western Maine missed out on the heaviest of the rainfall but locally heavy rain begin to impact the Mid-Coast region by late afternoon. The rain continued and became heavy at times through evening and into the night before tapering off by Midnight. Coastal Knox County received the heaviest rainfall where close to 5 fell in some areas.
