Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central/Northern Vermont and
Northern New York
National Weather Service Burlington VT
126 PM EDT Fri Aug 15 2025

...Low Relative Humidities Tomorrow...

.DISCUSSION...
Relative humidities will drop again tomorrow. While the minimums
will likely be in the 30 to 40 percent range for most areas,
localized areas should see them fall into the 20s. Winds will
also be on the lighter side tomorrow, with gusts around and under
10 mph. They should be mostly southerly, though they will be
light enough that terrain will influence them a little. Scattered
showers move through on Sunday, with the highest coverage expected
across northern areas. Models have been decreasing the amount of
rain, and it is increasingly likely that only northern areas
receive a wetting rain, and the coverage there will likely not be
complete. Even in areas that do, most places will see under a
quarter of an inch, so it will have little long term impact given
how dry it has been.
