Record Warmth in Northern New England Likely Not Over Yet

The record warmth in northern New England may not be over.
 
The National Weather Service says the temperature is projected to climb to a record-high 65 degrees on Wednesday in Concord, New Hampshire. In Portland, Maine, the temperature is projected to climb to 57 degrees, just 1 degree shy of the daily record.
 
The warmth continues from last week.
 
Concord set three records in a row from Thursday through Saturday. The period included the highest temperature ever recorded in Concord in February: 69 degrees.
 
Tom Hawley from the National Weather Service in Maine said the mid-winter cold returns Friday, just in time for the weekend.
