Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central/Northern Vermont and
Northern New York
National Weather Service Burlington VT
255 PM EDT Sun Aug 24 2025
...Wetting Rain Possible Tonight, Mainly Adirondacks and northern Vermont...
.DISCUSSION...
Very localized areas of appreciable rainfall in northern New York
of 0.15 - 0.5" has occurred as of this hour since last night. A
narrow line of showers and a few thunderstorms in the region should
intensify late this afternoon, with heavier rain favored across
the Adirondacks and perhaps far northern Vermont before
diminishing overnight with slow eastward progress. There may be
enough rain to produce 0.25" or greater in a large swath, but it
may miss much of central/eastern Vermont where lesser amounts are
favored. Moderate to high relative humidity should continue
areawide ahead of a cold front that pushes through the region on
Monday, then drier air will return leading to minimum RH falling
back towards 45 percent by late in the day from west to east.
