Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central/Northern Vermont and
Northern New York
National Weather Service Burlington VT
247 PM EDT Thu Sep 19 2024

...Dry weather continues...

.DISCUSSION...
It has been nearly 10 days since Vermont and northern New York
have seen appreciable rain. Winds have picked up to 5 to 10 mph
out of the north, with a few gusts to 15 mph possible. Mostly
sunny, warm weather will continue as temperatures climb into the
upper 70s to mid 80s again. Minimum relative humidity values this
afternoon should be about 40 to 50 percent, in general. Overall,
no meteorological thresholds for fire weather concerns will be
met.

For Friday, temperatures will begin to cool as a backdoor front
approaches, but still in the mid 70s to near 80. A shower or two
will be possible with increased clouds. As a result minimum
relative humidity values should remain above 50 percent. Rainfall
will be localized, and generally a few hundredths at most in the
core of any shower that manages to develop. Fire weather concerns
are not anticipated.
