FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ALBANY NY
246 PM EDT Tue Jul 15 2025

.DISCUSSION...
Dry weather will persist into early Wednesday afternoon as
dangerous heat and humidity return. Chances for showers and
thunderstorms then increase late Wednesday afternoon into
Wednesday night with the passage of a warm front. Dangerous heat
and humidity linger into Thursday, though not quite to the
extent of Wednesday, as an unsettled pattern ensures additional
chances for showers and thunderstorms through the end of the
work week. Saturday will be the nicest of the next seven days
with much cooler conditions and another brief period of dry
weather.
