144 PM EDT Tue Aug 19 2025
...Light Rainfall Tonight through Wednesday...
.DISCUSSION...
Light rainfall will spread over the North Country this evening
through Wednesday. Best chances for wetting rains will be mainly
for central to southern Vermont, the Adirondacks, and portions
of the St Lawrence Valley. Northern locations will experience
good RH recovery, but lower chances of wetting rainfall. The
driest locations will tend towards northeastern Vermont and along
the Canadian border. Otherwise, dry conditions return Thursday
through Saturday with generally light winds. Another round of
showers and a few thunderstorms will return late this weekend
as another system moves through the region.
