Widespread Sunshine Returns with Cooler Temperatures Across US East Coast

A cold front has brought cooler temperatures and rain showers to several regions, including Maine and Maryland, with skies clearing and sunshine returning by Wednesday. In Maine, temperatures are expected to be almost 10 degrees below average, with gusty northwesterly winds continuing. Maryland is experiencing a drop of 10-15 degrees in high temperatures, with frost advisories in some western counties, and rain is expected to return late Saturday through early next week. Contrastingly, Colorado is seeing a significant warm-up with highs climbing into the 70s and 80s, accompanied by bright skies and breezy conditions. Jacksonville, Florida, enjoys sunny and warm weather with temperatures reaching the mid-80s, though rain is forecast to return later in the week, and a hurricane in the Atlantic poses no immediate threat. Overall, the weather pattern shows a transition from cooler fall-like conditions in the northeast and mid-Atlantic to warmer conditions in the southwest, with coastal regions preparing for upcoming rain.
