282 FNUS51 KALY 290803 FWFALY FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY 402 AM EDT Wed May 29 2024 .DISCUSSION... A dry airmass and deep mixing will result in surface dewpoints falling to the mid 30s to mid 40s across the region, while temperatures in the mid 60s to mid 70s will lead to minimum RH values around 35 to 40%. North to northwest winds of 10 to 15 mph with gusts as high as 20 mph in the afternoon may further support an enhanced risk for fire spread. However, winds and humidity aside, widespread recent rainfall of 0.5 to 1 inch and locally higher amounts of 2 to 3 inches in higher terrain, in addition to increasingly green fuels, may act to inhibit said risk. Therefore, with marginally supportive weather conditions for fire spread and considering antecedent rainfall, no statements for fire weather are currently anticipated.
