FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
501 AM EDT Wed Jun 19 2024

.DISCUSSION...
The dangerous combination of near-record heat and elevated
humidity continues through at least Thursday, especially at
lower elevations. Isolated to scattered afternoon thunderstorms
are possible through Thursday, with an approaching cold front
expected to bring more widespread shower and thunderstorm
activity on Friday. The first half of the weekend may bring a
modest respite from the oppressive heat, but temperatures will
still remain seasonably warm to hot into next week.
