Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central/Northern Vermont and
Northern New York
National Weather Service Burlington VT
117 AM EDT Sat Aug 30 2025

...Lingering Light Showers North Today, Drying Next Week...

.DISCUSSION...
A slow moving low will linger just north of the border in Quebec,
bringing mostly cloudy and cool conditions for today. Periods of
light shower activity is expected, mainly near the International
Border. As the low tracks closer to the area, winds may be briefly
gusty today, particularly across northern New York with gusts up
to 25 mph possible. Winds will quickly weaken into this evening.
Drier and warmer conditions will filter into the region for the
start of next week as surface high pressure builds into the
region.
