Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central/Northern Vermont and
Northern New York
National Weather Service Burlington VT
241 PM EDT Sat Aug 2 2025

...Dry Pattern Continues; RH near Critical Values this Weekend...

.DISCUSSION...
Afternoon minimum RH today has been in the 25-45% over the region.
Similarly low afternoon RH is anticipated for tomorrow with high
pressure firmly over the region and another day of filtered
sunshine through wildfire haze. While RH recovery will not be as
significant as recent nights, enough of a nocturnal inversion
should develop to see RH increase into the 70-90% range. Winds
will remain light/under 15 MPH, trending southerly tonight through
tomorrow night, and then northerly on Monday.
