Temperature Climbs To Nearly 60 In Portland, Tying Record

PORTLAND, Maine - The mercury has approached 60 degrees in parts of northern New England, but the balmy temperatures will be gone in a flash. The National Weather Service said the temperature climbed to 58 degrees on Tuesday in Portland, Maine, tying the record for the date.

But meteorologist Chris Legrow said the high temperature will reach only about freezing by Wednesday. Parts of New England will get some snowfall to accompany the commute on Wednesday.
