FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR EASTERN NEW YORK...SOUTHERN
VERMONT...WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND NORTHWEST CONNECTICUT

.DISCUSSION...
Some rainfall is expected this evening due to a passing frontal
boundary. Some areas could see a wetting rainfall depending on
the track of showers and thunderstorms.
Drier weather will return for Easter Sunday. Afternoon RH values
will be as low as 20 to 30 percent across the entire area.
Northwest winds will increase to 10 to 15 mph, with some gusts
as high as 25 mph. Depending on how much rainfall occurs, fuels
could be dry enough for the need for a Special Weather Statement
for increased risk for fire spread, mainly for southern and
eastern parts of the area. Coordination with state partners
will occur once this evening`s rainfall is known and fine fuels
are assessed.
