Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central/Northern Vermont and
Northern New York
National Weather Service Burlington VT
242 PM EDT Fri Apr 26 2024

Dry weather continues through Saturday

.DISCUSSION...
Friday night and Saturday will be status quo, with relative
humidities rising into the 70 percent range overnight before
falling near 20 percent during the day. Increased wind speeds will
lead to a higher fire danger. By afternoon, south winds will
increase up to 10 to 15 mph with gusts around 20 mph. Near
critical fire weather conditions are possible, mainly east of the
St. Lawrence Valley where increasing cloud cover and rain chances
late afternoon could keep relative humidity higher. This rain will
push east overnight Sunday, with increasing moisture developing
into the next week.
